Installing on Linux

Use the platform-native installer to install the product on Linux platforms. The package provides a collection of RPM, DEB, and tar packages.

Prerequisites

On SUSE Linux, ensure that libjvm library is already installed.

Procedure

  1. Download the installation package. 
    TIB_msg-apd-bridge_1.0.x_linux_x86_64.zip
  2. Cd to the download directory or move the file to a preferred extraction location. Extract the TIBCO Messaging - Bridge for Apache Pulsar archive files. 
    unzip TIB_msg-apd-bridge_1.0.x_linux_x86_64.zip
    This command creates a directory, TIB_msg-apd-bridge_1.0.x, and places installation RPM, DEB, and tar artifacts in that directory.
  3. Change directory to the installation directory. 
    cd TIB_msg-apd-bridge_1.0.x
  4. Install using one of these commands, depending on the Linux platform variant.
    Linux Variant Command
    Red Hat, Centos 
    sudo yum install -y rpm/*.rpm
    Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora 
    sudo dpkg -i deb/*.deb
    SUSE 
    sudo zypper install rpm/*.rpm
    Note: If you encounter issues with dependencies, you can safely ignore those dependencies and proceed with the installation.
    Other Linux variants If your Linux variant does not include yum, dpkg, or zypper, you can use tar to extract the files. 
    for f in tar/*; do tar xvf $f; done
    The installation utilities yum, dpkg, or zypper install TIBCO Messaging - Bridge for Apache Pulsar software under /opt/tibco/.

    In contrast, the archive utility tar installs TIBCO Messaging - Bridge for Apache Pulsar software under ./opt/tibco/.

  5. Copy the Bridge for Apache Pulsar to the connectors/ directory of your Pulsar installation. 
    cp /opt/tibco/apd/bridge/1.0/lib/pulsar-io-ftl-1.0.nar \
/opt/tibco/apd/core/<VERSION>/connectors
