Installing in Silent Mode

Install the product in silent mode.

Note:
  • While you can use the TIBCOUniversalInstaller-asg.silent file, copy the file to a different name and use that file for the silent install.
  • If errors occur during installation, they are listed in the installation log file located in the User_Home/.TIBCO directory.

Procedure

  1. Make a copy of the TIBCOUniversalInstaller-asg.silent file to TIBCOUniversalInstaller-asg.silent.backup file.
  2. Using a text editor, open the TIBCOUniversalInstaller-asg.silent file and update the install location, ENV_NAME, and features to install as follows:
    1. Update the install location. This indicates the directory where the product is to be installed. For example, update the directory as follows:
      <entry key="installationRoot">/home/asg/tibcoasg</entry>
    2. Update ENV_NAME.

      For example, update ENV_NAME as follows:

      <entry key="createNewEnvironment">true</entry>
      <entry key="environmentName">TIBCO_HOME</entry>
    3. Update TIBCO Configuration Directory. This directory is used to store the configuration information.

      For example, update configDirectoryRoot as follows:

      <entry key="configDirectoryRoot">/home/user/tibco</entry>

      Note: If TIBCO API Exchange Gateway is installed in a directory that has a configuration directory already set by another TIBCO product (for example, TIBCO Enterprise Message Service), you do not need to set the configDirectoryRoot in the silent file. In this case, the silent installer uses the value of configDirectoryRoot as already set and ignores the value if set in the silent file.
    4. Update features to install. Set the features that you want to install to true.

      For example, the following key values must be set to true to install both TIBCO API Exchange Gateway and the documentation for TIBCO API Exchange Gateway.

      <entry key="feature_Runtime_api-exchange-gateway">true</entry>

      <entry key="feature_Documentation_api-exchange-gateway">true</entry>

    5. On the Linux platform, make sure that the following properties are set:
      Note:
      <entry key="LGPLAssemblyLicenseAccepted">true</entry>
      <entry key="LGPLAssemblyDownload">true</entry>
      <entry key="LGPLAssemblyPath"></entry>
  3. Run TIBCO Universal Installer (TIBCOUniversalInstaller*) using the following command, replacing myfile.silent with your response silent file name:
    TIBCOUniversalInstaller -silent -V responseFile="myfile.silent"

    For example,

    • On the Windows 64-bit platform, run the installer as follows:
      TIBCOUniversalInstaller-x86-64.exe -silent -V responseFile="myfile.silent"
    • On the Linux platform, type the command as follows:

      ./TIBCOUniversalInstaller-lnx-x86-64.bin -silent -V    responseFile="myfile.silent"
