This suggests that the installer hangs while trying to update the vpd file for Designer. This happens when installer doesn't get the lock on the vpd file for update.
Resolution:
==========
1).Search and delete any "*lck" "*lock", e.g .installregistrylock, .installregistrylck and .installerregistrysync files under the <TIBCO_HOME> dir or <user home> dir.
2).Stop and kill all TIBCO processes, particularly hawk and hawk hma processes that could lock the vpd files
