Creating an ActiveMatrix BPM Developer Server

To create an ActiveMatrix BPM Developer Server, run the Create TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM Server wizard from TIBCO Configuration Tool.

Procedure

  1. In the TIBCO Configuration Folder dialog, click OK to accept the default. Do not change the folder.
    Note: If you need to restart TIBCO Configuration Tool, run this command:

    TIBCO_HOME\bpm\n.n\bin\tct

    On Windows, you must right-click tct and select Run as administrator.

  2. In the Create new configurations dialog, click Create TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM Server.

    The Create TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM Server wizard is started.

  3. Ensure that the Enterprise Message Service server is running, on port 7222. To start the server:
    • On Windows, start the TIBCO EMS Server service from the Services window of Control Panel.
    • On Linux, run this command:

      EMS_HOME/bin/tibemsd.sh

      where EMS_HOME is the directory in which Enterprise Message Service is installed. If you installed it when you installed ActiveMatrix BPM, the path of the command is:

      TIBCO_HOME/ems/n.n/bin/tibemsd.sh

  4. On the Welcome page of the wizard, click Next.
  5. If the wizard detects that there is already a Developer Server instance on this computer, the ActiveMatrix BPM: Clean Existing Developer Server page is displayed. If you are happy to delete the instance, select the Remove existing Developer Server check box and click Next.
    Caution: The entire Developer Server instance, including ActiveMatrix BPM, ActiveMatrix Administrator, their associated databases, and all data, will be deleted.
  6. On the ActiveMatrix BPM Configuration: Summary page, click Configure.

    TIBCO Configuration Tool creates a Developer Server instance on this computer, which takes several minutes.

  7. When TIBCO Configuration Tool has created a Developer Server instance on this computer, click Close to exit the wizard, and click Close to exit TIBCO Configuration Tool.
    Note: If you need to install a hotfix, install the hotfix into the Developer Server TIBCO_HOME, and let TCT recreate the instance for you using the process described in this topic.

Result

You have finished installing ActiveMatrix BPM Developer Server. You can use the software only on this computer because it cannot be accessed remotely in this configuration.
