Typographical Conventions 

The following typographical conventions are used in this manual. 

Table 1 General Typographical Conventions 

Convention Use 

TIBCO_HOME 

ENV_HOME 

STUDIO_HOME 

Preface | vii 

Many TIBCO products must be installed within the same home directory. This 

directory is referenced in documentation as TIBCO_HOME. The value of 

TIBCO_HOME depends on the operating system. For example, on Windows 

systems, the default value is C:\Program Files\TIBCO. 

Other TIBCO products are installed into an installation environment. 

Incompatible products and multiple instances of the same product are installed 

into different installation environments. The directory into which such 

products are installed is referenced in documentation as ENV_HOME. The value 

of ENV_HOME depends on the operating system. For example, on Windows 

systems the default value is C:\Program Files\TIBCO. 

TIBCO Business Studio installs into a directory within . This directory is referenced in documentation as STUDIO_HOME. 

The value of STUDIO_HOME depends on the operating system. For example on 

Windows systems, the default value is 

C:\Program Files\TIBCO\studio\3.3\eclipse. 

code font Code font identifies commands, code examples, filenames, pathnames, and 

output displayed in a command window. For example: 

Use MyCommand to start the foo process. 

bold code font Bold code font is used in the following ways: 

In procedures, to indicate what a user types. For example: Type admin. 

In large code samples, to indicate the parts of the sample that are of 

particular interest. 

In command syntax, to indicate the default parameter for a command. For 

example, if no parameter is specified, MyCommand is enabled: 

MyCommand [enable | disable] 


viii | Typographical Conventions 

Table 1 General Typographical Conventions (Cont’d) 


italic font Italic font is used in the following ways: 

To indicate a document title. For example: See TIBCO ActiveMatrix 

BusinessWorks Concepts. 

To introduce new terms For example: A portal page may contain several 

portlets. Portlets are mini-applications that run in a portal. 

To indicate a variable in a command or code syntax that you must replace. 

For example: MyCommand pathname 

Key 

combinations 

Table 2 Syntax Typographical Conventions 



Key name separated by a plus sign indicate keys pressed simultaneously. For 

example: Ctrl+C. 

Key names separated by a comma and space indicate keys pressed one after 

the other. For example: Esc, Ctrl+Q. 

The note icon indicates information that is of special interest or importance, for 

example, an additional action required only in certain circumstances. 

The tip icon indicates an idea that could be useful, for example, a way to apply 

the information provided in the current section to achieve a specific result. 

The warning icon indicates the potential for a damaging situation, for example, 

data loss or corruption if certain steps are taken or not taken. 

[ ] An optional item in a command or code syntax. 

For example: 

MyCommand [optional_parameter] required_parameter 

| A logical OR that separates multiple items of which only one may be chosen. 

For example, you can select only one of the following parameters: 

MyCommand para1 | param2 | param3

Table 2 Syntax Typographical Conventions 


{ } A logical group of items in a command. Other syntax notations may appear 

within each logical group. 

For example, the following command requires two parameters, which can be 

either the pair param1 and param2, or the pair param3 and param4. 

MyCommand {param1 param2} | {param3 param4} 

Preface | ix 

In the next example, the command requires two parameters. The first parameter 

can be either param1 or param2 and the second can be either param3 or param4: 

MyCommand {param1 | param2} {param3 | param4} 

In the next example, the command can accept either two or three parameters. 

The first parameter must be param1. You can optionally include param2 as the 

second parameter. And the last parameter is either param3 or param4. 

MyCommand param1 [param2] {param3 | param4}

eclipse_project_plan_3_4.html#TargetOperatingEnvironments 

Minimum Disk Space and Memory Requirements 

Free disk space: 700MB. 

Memory: 512MB RAM for TIBCO Business Studio 

Eclipse Requirements 

If you are installing into your own Eclipse platform rather than the Eclipse 

platform provided by TIBCO Business Studio, TIBCO recommends you use 

Eclipse JEE Galileo Version 3.5, SR2 (32-bit). If you do not use this version of 

Eclipse, you must also install additional Eclipse plug-ins as described in 

Additional Eclipse Plugins on page 17. 

The following section lists software requirements. 



Third-party Software: 

The following third party software is required: 

JRE 1.6.0 (included in installation). We recommend that users stay up to date 

with Java patches issued by Oracle. 

Installer Account 

Installation Directory 


You must have administrator privileges for the machine on which TIBCO 

Business Studio is installed. If you do not have administrator privileges, the 

installer exits. You must then log out of the system and log in as a user with the 

required privileges, or request your system administrator to assign the privileges 

to your account. 

After installing TIBCO Business Studio with administrator privileges, do not use 

the same account to create a workspace for the user. Instead, individual users 

should start TIBCO Business Studio from the account with which they intend to 

use TIBCO Business Studio, and create their own workspace to avoid potential 

issues with permissions. 

If you intend to install the product on a network drive, you must ensure that the 

account used for installation has permission to access the network drive. 

TIBCO recommends that you install TIBCO Business Studio into a new, empty 

installation environment (separate from earlier versions of TIBCO Business 

Studio or other TIBCO products). You should install each version of TIBCO 

Business Studio into a new, empty installation environment with a new 

workspace. 

To do this install TIBCO Business Studio as described in Install TIBCO Business 

Studio on page 6. Specify a new, empty directory or create a new, empty directory 

as the environment location. 

You may install TIBCO Business Studio into an existing installation environment 

if: 

you are reinstalling the same edition and version of TIBCO Business Studio in 

order to repair a corrupt installation. 

you are sure none of the existing products in that installation environment 

conflict with the edition and version of TIBCO Business Studio that you are 

installing.

Install TIBCO Business Studio 

Install in GUI Mode 


This section describes how to install TIBCO Business Studio. 

Install TIBCO Business Studio using one of the following modes: 

Install in GUI Mode on page 6 

Install in Silent Mode (Windows Platforms) on page 8 

The following procedure explains how to install TIBCO Business Studio in GUI 

mode. Hibernate is also installed as part of the installation process. 

1. Log in to the system on which you want to install TIBCO Business Studio (for 

more information, see Installer Account, page 4). 

If you want the installer to automatically install Hibernate 3.2.7, make sure 

you are online. See Software Requirements on page 3 for more information. 

2. Open the physical media or download the TIBCO Business Studio package to 

the machine on which you want to install TIBCO Business Studio. 

3. Extract the installation files to a temporary directory. 

4. Double-click TIBCOUniversalInstaller. The Welcome dialog is displayed. 

5. Review the information in the Welcome dialog and click Next. The License 

Agreement dialog is displayed. 

6. 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 do not agree to the terms of the license agreement, click Cancel to exit 

from the installation process. 

The Installation Profile Selection dialog is displayed. 

7. Choose a profile or select Customize Installation from the list in the left hand 

pane..(See Installation Profiles on page 2). The right hand pane displays the 

features that are selected for each profile. If you select Customize Installation, 

all the features are selected. You can add or remove individual features, 

depending on your requirements. 

Click Next.

Install TIBCO Business Studio | 7 

8. The TIBCO Installation Home dialog appears. TIBCO_HOME is the 

preferred top level installation directory for all TIBCO products on your 

system. Select either: 

— Create a new TIBCO_HOME. Click Browse to specify an environment 

location (a directory path to an empty folder into which the software will 

be installed), or accept the default environment location (which is the last 

directory in the path selected). 

— Use an existing TIBCO_HOME. Select an existing TIBCO_HOME from 

the drop-down list. 

The installer automatically creates an environment name for the location you 

specify. The default environment name is studio-silver-bpm-3.4. If this is not 

the first installation of TIBCO software, you can edit the environment name to 

differentiate this second installation of TIBCO software from the first. 

Click Next. 

9. The Eclipse Location dialog is displayed. TIBCO recommends that you use 

the Eclipse platform provided with TIBCO Business Studio; to do this, just 

click Next. However you can install TIBCO Business Studio 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. 

10. 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. 

11. When you are satisfied with your choices, click Install. The installer now 

performs the necessary installation tasks. 

12. Once the installer has finished the installation tasks, the Running Product 

ANT Tasks dialog is displayed. The installer now performs the necessary 

tasks to initialize the installation. Click Show Details to see the tasks that the 

installer is performing. 

13. 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. 




14. Complete the post-installation tasks described in Perform Post 

Installation/Upgrade Tasks on page 10. 

Install in Silent Mode (Windows Platforms) 

The following procedure explains how to install TIBCO Business Studio in silent 

mode on Windows platforms. 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 use that file for the silent install. 

If errors occur during installation, they will be listed in the installation log file (see 

the User_Home/.TIBCO directory). 

1. Open the distribution DVD or download the TIBCO Business Studio product 

package. 

2. Extract the TIBCO Business Studio product archive file to a temporary 

directory. 

3. Using a console window, navigate to the temporary directory that contains the 

universal installer. 

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

5. Using a text editor, open the copied file and update the install location, and 

the list of features to install. 

6. Run the installer: 

TIBCOUniversalInstaller -silent -V 

responseFile="myfilename.silent" 

If you are using the TIBCOUniversalInstaller.silent file, you need not 

supply the file name and can run: TIBCOUniversalInstaller -silent. 

If you are installing Asset Central and Windows firewall alerts are displayed, 

click Unblock so Asset Central can be installed. 

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.

7. Complete the post-installation tasks described in Perform Post 

Installation/Upgrade Tasks on page 10. 

Install TIBCO Business Studio | 9 



Perform Post Installation/Upgrade Tasks 


After the installation completes perform the tasks described in this section as 

applicable. 

Delete the Temporary Installation Files (Windows) 

Configure Subversion (SVN) 

Windows 7 

If you want to recover the disk space used by the installation files that you 

extracted to a temporary directory in step 3 of the installation, delete them. 

If you plan on using SVN, after you start TIBCO Business Studio, you must 

change the SVN settings for your workspace as follows: 

You must also perform this procedure when you switch to a new workspace. This 

setting is saved for the workspace, so you need only do this once on each 

workspace. 

1. Select Window > Preferences. 

2. Expand Team and select SVN. 

3. Change the SVN interface: setting to SVNKit(Pure Java) and click Apply and 

OK to exit the dialog. 

For TIBCO Business Studio to run properly in Windows 7, you must change the 

privilege level for TIBCO Business Studio to Run this program as Administrator. 

To do this: 

1. Browse to the location of your TIBCO Business Studio.exe, for example 

TIBCO_HOME\studio\3.4\eclipse. 

2. Right-click TIBCO Business Studio.exe and select Properties. The Properties 

dialog is displayed. 

3. Select Compatibility. In Privilege Level, select Run this program as 

Administrator.

Create Link Files (Optional) 

Perform Post Installation/Upgrade Tasks | 11 

The TIBCO Business Studio installation creates files called "link files" in the 

following directory: 

STUDIO_HOME\eclipse-platform\ganymede\eclipse\links 

A link file provides the path for any additional plug-ins that you want to include 

in your Eclipse or TIBCO Business Studio environment. If you have other plug-ins 

that you want to link to your TIBCO Business Studio environment, create a link 

file in the previously mentioned directory. The file extension must be .link, and 

the file must contain the path to the parent directory of the eclipse directory, 

which in turn must contain plugins and features directories. For example, a link 

file could contain the following path (note that the directory delimiters must be 

forward slashes): 

path=C:/ganymede 

In this case there must be an eclipse directory below ganymede, and the eclipse 

directory must contain plugins and features directories: 

For more information about link files, see: 

http://help.eclipse.org/ganymede/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse.platform.doc.is 

v/guide/product_extension.htm 

Configure Eclipse Memory Settings 

If you installed TIBCO Business Studio into your own Eclipse platform, you must 

modify the Eclipse initialization file (eclipse.ini) located in the Eclipse installation 

directory. Change the memory settings to those listed in the following table. 

Default Eclipse Value ...change to 

-Xms40m -Xms256m 

-Xmx256m -Xmx512m 




In addition, TIBCO recommends copying the other initialization settings from the 

file TIBCOBusinessStudio.ini and adding them to your eclipse.ini file. 

Validate the Eclipse Installation 

Default Eclipse Value ...change to 

--launcher.XXMaxPermSize 

256m 

No change 

After you install TIBCO Business Studio, especially if you installed the product 

into your own Eclipse platform, you should validate the installation. 

1. Start TIBCO Business Studio or Eclipse (depending on where you installed 

TIBCO Business Studio). 

2. Select Help > Validate TIBCO Business Studio Configuration. 

The resulting dialog reports any problems with the TIBCO or Eclipse plug-ins. 

3. Take action according to the messages displayed in the dialog (for example, 

upgrade or download plug-ins that are not present or not of the required 

version).

Uninstalling TIBCO Business Studio 

Using the Uninstaller 


If you want to uninstall TIBCO Business Studio from your system, perform the 

following steps: 

Windows 

Either: 

use the uninstaller provided with TIBCO Business Studio or 

Remove the installation using the Add/Remove Programs option on your PC 

(Programs and Features on Windows Vista). 

When you installed TIBCO Business Studio, if the installer detected a suitable 

Java Virtual Machine (JVM), that JVM is used by TIBCO Business Studio. The 

uninstallation will fail if you remove the JVM used by TIBCO Business Studio 

before removing TIBCO Business Studio. If this happens, you can use the 

command line to uninstall with the -is:javahome option. To do this, navigate to 

the installation_environment\_uninstall folder and enter the following 

command: 

universal_uninstall.exe -is:javahome 

To use the uninstaller: 

1. Log in to the system on which you want to uninstall software. 

2. The Welcome dialog is displayed. Click Next. 

3. Select either Custom (to choose products in this environment to uninstall) or 

Typical to uninstall all products in the environment. 

If you selected Typical, continue with step 5. 

If you selected Custom, continue with the next step. 

4. The Product Uninstall Selection dialog is displayed. 

Select the products (for example, TIBCO Business Studio 3.3) you want to 

uninstall and click Next. 

5. The Ready to Uninstall dialog is displayed. 

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 uninstallation 

process from that point.

6. When you are satisfied with your choices, click Uninstall. 

The uninstaller removes the software product you specified. 

The TIBCO Business Studio entries in the Start menus may appear after the 

uninstallation. To correct this log out, then log in again. 

Using Add/Remove Programs (Windows Only) 

To remove the installation using the Add/Remove Programs option on your PC: 

1. Log in to Windows as a user with system administrator privileges. You must 

have system administrator privileges to uninstall this software. 

2. In the Control Panel, double-click the Add or Remove Programs. 

3. In the Add/Remove Programs dialog, select TIBCO Universal Installer 

(installation_environment_n), where installation_environment_n is the 

directory corresponding to the installation environment you want to uninstall. 

If you have installed more than one TIBCO product, there will be multiple 

entries in Add/Remove programs (for example, TIBCO Universal Installer 

(c:\tibco\env_1), TIBCO Universal Installer (c:\tibco\env_2), and so on). 

4. Click Change/Remove. 

The uninstaller launches. Follow the uninstallation steps in Using the 

Uninstaller on page 14. 

The uninstaller may not completely remove files that have been modified since 

the initial installation (for example, the configuration directory and the Asset 

Central repository and logs directories). Verify that the Asset Central repository 

contains all your source files and their history. If you do not need any of the other 

remaining files, manually delete them.

SR2 (32-bit) and you want to install into your own Eclipse platform rather than
