I am confused by Oracle documentation on how to setup the (ATG) Web Commerce available on the edelivery website.

I would like to get to the step where I have properly set up the admin console.

Running the bin files on a server seems not work for various reasons:

  • either installation finishes but nothing is working

OR

  • the installation endlessly asks for arbitrary input.

Also, I want to know if it is possible to setup the server in docker and/or an Amazon Linux EC2 instance.

There are quite a number of steps involved in getting the ATG Admin Server up and running. These start with installing a JDK, Application Server and provisioning a database. Once you have gone through the Installer (which you downloaded from the edelivery site) you need to go through a basic setup process using the CIM tool. The installation process (for ATG 11.3.1) is documented here, while the steps to setup a basic application is documented here.

Working through the steps in the CIM tool, you will end up with a deployable .ear file that you can copy to your application server. Once your application server is started, you will be able to access the Dynamo Admin server.

As of version 11.3.1 ATG is officially supported on Docker. Considering that you compile your own .ear file and it can be deployed to an Application Server (such as Weblogic), Docker support won't necessarily provide you with an ATG Image. It will simply allow you to run your compiled artefact on a Docker container. You are more likely wanting to get hold of a Weblogic Docker Image and deploy your ATG artefact there.
