This section lists some common errors along with their causes and solutions.
Install and uninstall log files are created in the TIBCO_HOME\log
directory.
The installer first extracts the bundled JVM into a temporary area and then uses it to launch itself. It for some reason, the JVM crashes, you can still run the installer using another JVM, preferably JVM 1.4.2 or higher. The syntax is:
TIB_bcremote-suite_5.0.0_win_x86.exe
-is:javahome C:\j2sdk1.4.2
TIB_bcremote-suite_5.0.0_linux24gl22_x86.bin -is:javahome
/opt/jre1.4.2
The javahome
directory must contain bin/java.exe
or bin/java
.
The installer will use the externally supplied JRE to launch itself.
If the original uninstall directory is in use at uninstall time, it cannot be removed by the installer program. The installer then creates a second uninstall directory for the second installation. To remove the second installation, you must invoke the uninstall program from the second uninstall directory. The original uninstall directory can also be manually removed, if empty.
The installer is Java-based and requires a Java Virtual Machine (JVM) to launch. If the installer can use a JVM already on your system, installation is faster and uses less disk space. Otherwise, the installer extracts JVM from the installation package. This section explains where the installer searches for JVM, and how you can add a different location to the search path.
Every product installer is bundled with the appropriate platform-specific JVM version. When launched, the installer first searches for the appropriate JVM version on the target system.
The installer by default searches for an appropriate JVM version in a set of standard locations. These standard locations are platform specific and are listed in JVM Search Locations. On each platform, the installer searches for JVM 1.4.2 only.
You can speed up the JVM search by taking one of these actions before you launch the installer:
_jvm
directory in the product location. However, if JVM was resolved through JVM search, the uninstaller just points to this JVM and uses it later to launch itself. In this case, JVM is not installed. This is a major benefit in terms of disk space.
-is:javahome
option to point to a different JVM location.The following tables list the search locations for the different platforms.

The installer calculates the disk space required in product home location for the selected components. The calculation is done before the actual installation (copying of files to system) begins. The installer will proceed only if sufficient free disk space is available in product home location.
However, if disk space is consumed by another process while the installer is copying the files, and if the required disk space is thereby reduced, the installer may fail and will then give a failure message.
While performing installation, avoid running other processes that consume disk space in product home location.
