Changing the Location of the Installer Log File

If you encounter problems with the installation, first ensure that your system meets all prerequisites. Next, check the installer log for potential problems.

The installer log file, tibco_universal_installer.timestamp.username_install.log, is available in the following locations:
  • Microsoft Windows: C:\Users\username\.TIBCO\install_timestamp
  • Linux: user_home_dir/.TIBCO/install_timestamp

The installer log file captures the following information:

  • Installation environment details, such as the user that invoked the installer, host name, Java home in the environment, operating system details, and so on.
  • List of assemblies installed.
  • Information related to the ant scripts that are executed by the installer.

To change the location of the installer log file, specify the option -V logFile="myLogFile" when you run the installer.
