Issue/Introduction

Universal Installer fails to install BW 6 with an error for incompatiblebinary version being used for bundled JRE.

Resolution

There may be an issue if the /tmp directory is mounted with the noexec option. The solution is to run the command shown below.
 
      /TIBCOUniversalInstaller-lnx-x86-64.bin -is:tempdir < an existing directory which is writable and executable by user and has at least 65 MB of disk space>/mytemp
   
where mytemp is any directory created with execute permissions.

If this does not work & if you have a JRE pre-installed on the system, you can you run the Installer with the following option.

       ./TIBCOUniversalInstaller-lnx-x86-64.bin   -is:javahome <<JRE_HOME_PATH>>

If not, you can download the JRE and then use the location in the above command.
