For more details on TIBCO installation environment, see TIBCO Environment and Default Installation Directory.
First Installation
If this is the first time that you are installing a TIBCO product using the Universal Installer, you must create an installation environment by specifying the Name, Description, and Path:
Directory  The root directory into which all TIBCO products are installed. Individual products will use sub-directories of this. Type a path or click Browse to specify the path or accept the default location.
The path cannot contain special characters such as "*", "#", "?", ">", "<", "%", "&", "$", "`" or "|". The path cannot be the same as the path of an existing environment.
Name Identifies the installation environment. The name cannot contain special characters such as "*", "?", ">", "<", ":", "|", "/", "\", or quotes (").
The name is appended to the name of Windows services created by the installer and is a component of the path to the product in the Windows Start > All Programs menu.
Subsequent Installation
If you have previously installed a TIBCO product using the Universal Installer, you can do either of the following:
Install into a previously-created installation environment. Select Use an existing TIBCO_HOME and then select an environment from the list.
When installing multiple products into a single installation environment, ensure that all the products are compatible. For more information, see System Requirements on page 2 and the product-specific installation documentation.
Create another installation environment to keep the product installations separate. In this case you must select Create a new installation environment from the list and then specify the Name, Description, and Path for the new installation environment.

The Installation Type screen appears. Install all features by clicking Typical or choose the features to install by clicking Custom. After making your choice, click Next.
11.
If you selected Custom, in step 10, a screen similar to the following appears. If you did not select Custom, proceed to step 12.
Uncheck the check box next to the features you do not want to install, and click Next.
12.
The Eclipse Location dialog is displayed. TIBCO recommends that you use the Eclipse platform provided with TIBCO BusinessEvents; to do this, just click Next. However you can install TIBCO BusinessEvents into your own Eclipse installation. If you want to do this, select the Use my own Eclipse installation check box, specify the location of your Eclipse installation in the Eclipse Installation Location field, and click Next.
The installer performs some basic checks to try to ascertain whether a suitable copy of Eclipse is installed in the selected directory. If the installer finds any problems with the Eclipse configuration that you specified, it displays messages. If you are confident that the directory is correct or if you plan to manually configure Eclipse later, continue the installation.
13.
After the installer configures your installation choices, the Pre Install Summary dialog is displayed. Review the information displayed 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.

The installer now performs the necessary installation tasks. When installation has completed, the Post Install Summary dialog is displayed. Click Finish to exit from the installer. There is a slight delay while the installer deletes temporary files.

Install in Silent Mode
The following procedure explains how to install TIBCO BusinessEvents in silent mode. The TIBCOUniversalInstaller.silent file is packaged in the directory that contains the universal installer. You must edit the file with information for your environment before launching the silent installation. The file includes comments that describe the installation properties you can set.
While you can use the TIBCOUniversalInstaller.silent file, it’s good practice to copy the file to a different name and edit that file for the silent mode.
If errors occur during installation, they will be listed in the installation log file (see the User_Home/.TIBCO directory).

4.
Copy the TIBCOUniversalInstaller.silent file and name the file.

TIBCOUniversalInstaller -silent -V responseFile="myfile.silent"
If you are using the TIBCOUniversalInstaller.silent file, you need not supply the file name and can run: TIBCOUniversalInstaller -silent.
A line similar to the following is written to the installer log file when installation completes:
Install, com.tibco.installer.util.TIBCOInstaller, dbg.Debug, The installation has completed. Please check the log file for additional information.
