Starting Automated Installation

To install TIBCO MFT Internet Server in console mode, first you have to start the automatic installation.

Prerequisites

Ensure the following pre-requisites are met:

  • You have configured Java on Windows or UNIX. For more information, see Configuring Java on Windows or UNIX.
  • If using Oracle Java versions prior to 8.u161, download the JCE Unlimited Strength Jurisdiction Policy Files from the following website and save the files in the JRE lib\security directory. For example, C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_66\jre\lib\security.

    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/index.html

  • Unzip the MFT Internet Server Distribution zip file into a directory. On Windows, we do not suggest installing TIBCO MFT Internet Server in the "Program Files" or "Program Files (x86)" directories. We suggest creating a directory and unzipping the files into that directory. For example:

    c:\MFTIS

  • Copy the JDBC driver jar file(s) into the database-lib directory, which is present in the Installation directory.
    • Make sure that you have copied the proper JDBC driver to the database-lib directory.
    • Make sure that only one JDBC driver is in the database-lib directory.
    • If using Java 11 or a later version, make sure that the JDBC driver supports Java 11.

    After you fix the JDBC driver, re-run the install.

  • If you are executing on UNIX, ensure that the install.sh script have the execute attribute.
  • If you are installing TIBCO MFT Internet Server on one of the supported UNIX platforms and have uploaded the files needed for installing on UNIX, the default permissions should be set to the following: 
    cfcc.jar           -r-- r-- r-- 444
CMSInstall.jar     -r-- r-- r-- 444
connmgr.jar        -r-- r-- r-- 444
EULA.txt           -r-- r-- r-- 444
install-config.xml -r-- r-- r-- 444
installer.jar      -r-- r-- r-- 444
install.sh         -r-x r-x r-x 555
server.jar         -r-- r-- r-- 444
