How to install WebLogic on a machine where there is already a Oracle Database

Question

I'm installing for the first time Weblogic:

• Url: https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/weblogic/downloads/wls-main-097127.html
• Installer type: Generic Installer for Oracle WebLogic Server and Oracle Coherence

As you can see from the image

the installer states that is going to create a new Oracle home.

I remember that when I installed Oracle Database I read, during the installation, that the installer was creating a Oracle Home.

My question may seem pretty stupid: can I launch the default installation for Weblogic or it can create problem since there is already Oracle Database installed and a Oracle home already exists?

Thank you

You have to install every oracle product in a different home directory. You can set the home directory in the installation wizard.
