Description

The TIBCO_HOME environment is created when we install the first TIBCO product in a new TIBCO_HOME directory. The TIBCO_HOME directory is configured with key "installationRoot".
By default, the environment name is the folder name of the installation root.

 

Environment

All Operating Systems

Resolution

To modify the default environment name, add an entry key "environmentName" to the silent installation file.

e.g., environmentName=TIBCO_BE_Test on d:\tibco_BEtest
...
<entry key="installationRoot">d:\tibco_test1</entry>
<entry key="environmentDesc">BE test installation</entry>
<entry key="environmentName">TIBCO_BE_Test</entry>
...

Silent installation:
<installFolder>/TIBCOUniversalInstaller-x86-64 -silent  -V responseFile="<filename.silent>"


Note:
Parameter "-V responseFile" is not required when you modify and load the default response file "TIBCOUniversalInstaller_businessevents-enterprise_<version>.silent".

All TIBCO_HOME environment settings are stored in _envInfo.xml file(s).

Location on Windows:
%ProgramFiles%\Common Files\InstallShield\Universal\TIBCO\Gen1\_vpddb\_envInfo.xml
%homedrive%%homepath%\.TIBCOEnvInfo\_envInfo.xml


Location on Unix:
$HOME/InstallShield/Universal/TIBCO/Gen1/_vpddb/_envInfo.xml
$HOME/.TIBCOEnvInfo/_envInfo.xml
