Chapter 1 Upgrading to Release 5.10.0 : Upgrade Issues

Upgrade Issues
See the TIBCO Runtime Agent Release Notes and the TIBCO Administrator Release Notes Known Issues sections for descriptions of additional issues related to migration.
Using Oracle Thick Client on HP_UX Systems
In order to use the thick database client supplied by Oracle on HP_UX systems, you must set the ORACLE_HOME environment variable each time prior to performing one of the following functions:
For example, if your Oracle home directory is /u01/app/oracle/product/10.2, you must execute the following shell command:
% export ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/10.2
TIBCO Enterprise Message Service Server Version Number
If you have used TIBCO Domain Utility to add the Enterprise Message Service server to a domain, when you upgrade the server to a new version, the Software column in the TIBCO Administrator GUI Application Management > All Service Instances panel is not updated with the correct version number. After installing the upgraded server software, you must rerun TIBCO Domain Utility to update the server information. You must logout and log back into the TIBCO Administrator GUI to see the changes.

TIBCO Designer Strict Naming Convention
A stricter naming convention is enforced in TIBCO Designer 5.2 and above. The strict naming convention prevents you from renaming an object by changing case and prevents the use of certain characters. The strict naming convention must be turned off if you are opening 5.1.x project in TIBCO Designer 5.10 that contains characters that are illegal in those releases.
The -Dstrictnames flag is used to enforce or relax the strict naming convention. The flag is set by adding java.extended.properties=-Dstrictnames=true to the designer.tra file. The default is true.
If set to true, the strict naming convention is enforced. This means you cannot rename an object by changing case. For example, you cannot rename an object from myobject to MyObject. You also cannot use the following characters in an object name: | / \ " ' : ?.
If set to false, the strict naming convention is not enforced. This means you can rename objects by changing case. You also can use the following characters in an object name: | / \ " ' : ?.
The -Dstrictnames flag should be set to false when opening a 5.1.3 project in TIBCO Designer 5.10 that contains object names which use the disallowed characters. After opening the project, you should change object names by removing the disallowed characters and reset the -Dstrictnames flag to true.
Roles and TIBCO BusinessWorks Collaborator
TIBCO BusinessWorks Collaborator 5.5.x using TIBCO Runtime Agent 5.5.x can work with applications in a 5.10 administration domain. However, the new features in 5.10 will not work in the following cases:
Adapters Based on the Generic Adapter Resource
TIBCO Adapter software is developed by TIBCO and new releases of these adapters will be compatible with BusinessWorks 5.x. However, there are some adapters both created by TIBCO and created by third parties that use the Generic Adapter Configuration resource. Adapters that have been created using the Generic Adapter Configuration resource have two known compatibility issues:
