Installing in GUI Mode
When you run the installer in GUI mode, it prompts you for information about the installation environment, and allows other customization.
Procedure
-
Prepare to install as follows:
- Log in to the system on which you want to install TIBCO BusinessEvents.
- Extract the TIBCO BusinessEvents product archive file to a temporary directory then navigate to that directory. You can also extract the product archive files for all TIBCO BusinessEvents add-on products that you are installing to the same temporary directory. See the Tip section above,
- Run the TIBCO Universal Installer executable (TIBCOUniversalInstaller*).
- Review the information in the Welcome dialog. If you are installing multiple add-ons, they are listed in this dialog. Click Next.
-
The License Agreement dialog displays. Review the terms of the license agreement and, if you agree to them, click
I accept the terms of the license agreement. Then click
Next to continue with the installation. If you are also installing add-on products, you must accept each license separately.
(If you do not agree to the terms of the license agreement, click Cancel to exit from the installation process.)
- Select or create a TIBCO home. For more details and guidelines see TIBCO Home and Default Installation Directory. Do one of the following:
-
For full installers only, you can customize the installation as follows.
(If you don’t want to customize the installation just click Next without checking the Customize Installation checkbox and go to step 5.)
- Check the Customize Installation check box.
- Optionally select only the components you want to install. See TIBCO BusinessEvents Components and Add-on Products for guidelines.
- Click Next.
- A dialog appears where you can specify the location of a different Eclipse installation from the version provided with TIBCO BusinessEvents. Do one of the following.
- Do not check the Use my own Eclipse installation check box. Just click Next to accept the provided Eclipse installation. (This is the recommended approach).
- Check the Use my own Eclipse installation check box. Specify the location of your Eclipse installation in the Eclipse Installation Location field, and click Next. Also see Existing Eclipse (or TIBCO Business Studio) Installation for additional configuration required to use your own installation.
- The installer performs some basic checks and if it finds any problems with the Eclipse configuration that you specified, it displays messages. If you are installing TIBCO BusinessEvents before your own copy of Eclipse, you can ignore the messages and continue the installation.
-
The installer configures your installation choices, then the Pre-Install Summary dialog displays. Review the information in the dialog and make sure that it is correct.
If you want to change any of your choices, click Back to step back through the dialogs to the appropriate point. You can then restart the installation process from that point.
If you are satisfied with your choices, click Install.
The installer now performs the necessary installation tasks.
-
You may be prompted to replace files already on disk that are newer than the installation files.
- In the case of a fresh installation of the add-on over a prior fresh installation of a full installer version of the add-on or of TIBCO BusinessEvents, such messages are harmless: overwrite all existing files.
- In the case of files you have changed: if you want to save settings in any existing files, first save a backup of the files to a different name, and then replace the original files with the newly installed files. After installation configure the newly installed files using information from the prior version’s file backups, as needed.
- When installation has completed, the Post Install Summary dialog displays. Click Finish to exit from the installer. There is a slight delay while the installer deletes temporary files.
