Which weblogic.xml file should I edit?

Question

I'm trying to fix some problems with a web app running on Weblogic 12c, and I've seen many users give advice to edit a file called weblogic.xml

This seems easy enough, except that there are multiple files called weblogic.xml in my directories. Which one am I supposed to edit? Specifically, I'm trying to do a fix like in this question.

Edit the xml file in your web app (war/ear file).... can you add more detail to the question? — Display Name is missing, Aug 08 '15 at 17:38

The weblogic.xml file is found under the WEB-INF directory along side the web.xml file.

There are about 20 WEB-INF directories. – Barry McNamara Aug 10 '15 at 14:43
Is this an EAR file with multiple web applications? If so you need to edit all of them. Depending on what you want to configure, there is an weblogic-application.xml file at the EAR level that applies to all web applications bunded in the EAR. – Brian Ochs Aug 10 '15 at 15:12
It's not. I was looking in the Weblogic folders when I should have been looking where my project was saved. That's why I was confused. – Barry McNamara Aug 10 '15 at 15:25

You want to change the one found with your web application. In my case, I accessed it through Eclipse (because that's where my project was saved) under /src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/weblogic.xml. I was confused because I thought I was supposed to look in the Weblogic server or domain folders, where there were over a dozen weblogic.xml files.

Which weblogic.xml file should I edit?
