It looks like the 12.1sp1 DVD images don't have the web edition version. It is installing the Subscription Edition.

The version 12.1 Web Edition page does have a correct DVD it looks like though.

You can either install 12.1sp1 using a different method (the automatic downloader, or the "Individual Files" option), or you can use a DVD from an earlier version.

You can tell that you actually got the Web Edition version because the resulting downloaded file will have "free" in the filename.
