ADMIN server is not starting after domain configured

Issue:After domain configuration admin server is force shutting down.

Error in logs:<May 18, 2013 11:26:30 AM MDT> <Notice> <WebLogicServer> <BEA-000388>  WLS shutdown hook. The server will force shutdown now>
<May 18, 2013 11:26:30 AM MDT> <Alert> <WebLogicServer> <BEA-000396> <shutdown has been requested by <WLS Kernel>>
<May 18, 2013 11:26:30 AM MDT> <Notice> <WebLogicServer> <BEA-000365> state changed to FORCE_SHUTTING_DOWN>


Resolution:There are 2 possible workarounds:

Workaround1. Add the following parameter in the startWeblogic.cmd as a JAVA_OPTION

-Dweblogic.management.allowPasswordEcho=true

Example:

JAVA_OPTIONS="${JAVA_OPTIONS} -Dweblogic.management.allowPasswordEcho=true"

Workaround 2. 

a. Navigate to $MIDDLEWARE_HOME/user_projects/domains/<domain_name>/servers/AdminServer/security/. If the /security folder does not exist then create it. Then create a boot.properties file in the /security folder that contains:

username=weblogic
password=<password>

b. save the changes and try to start the AdminServer again
