Solution ::

To solve this we need to patch the jython-modules.jar. For default JDeveloper installation path we need to go to C:\Oracle\Middleware\wlserver_10.3\common\wlst\modules and extract the jython-modules.jar using an utility like 7-zip. Then we need to open the javashell.py python script inside lib folder and add at line 139 a String for Windows 8 OS:

_osTypeMap = (
        ( "nt", ( 'nt', 'Windows NT', 'Windows NT 4.0', 'WindowsNT',
                  'Windows 2000', 'Windows 2003', 'Windows XP', 'Windows CE',
                  'Windows Vista', 'Windows Server 2008', 'Windows 7', 'Windows 8' )),
        ( "dos", ( 'dos', 'Windows 95', 'Windows 98', 'Windows ME' )),
        ( "mac", ( 'mac', 'MacOS', 'Darwin' )),
        ( "None", ( 'None', )),
        )

How to Remove Domain From weblogic

As of now there is no out of the box feature with Weblogic Configuration wizard to remove or delete a domain. These are basically manual steps.

For example if I want to delete a domain named geo_domain below are the steps you need to remove the domain.

Open domain-registry.xml under $Middleware_HOME .Remove the corresponding entry referring to geo_domain.

CodeSnippet :: domain-registry.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<domain-registry xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/weblogic/domain-registry">
<domain location="C:\Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\domains\soa_domain"/>
<domain location="C:\Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\domains\geo_domain"/>
</domain-registry>

Open nodemanager.domains file under $Middleware_HOME \wlserver_10.3\common\nodemanager\ folder.
Remove the corresponding entry referring to geo_domain.
CodeSnippet :: nodemanager.domains
#Domains and directories created by Configuration Wizard
geo_domain=C\:\\Oracle\\Middleware\\user_projects\\domains\\geo_domain

Delete the domain folder under domains folder manually.
$Middleware_HOME\user_projects\domains\geo_domain
