Typographical ConventionsTypographical Conventions
The following typographical conventions are used in this manual.
Table 1 General Typographical Conventions Convention Use
ENV_NAME TIBCO_HOME BC_HOME
TIBCO products are installed into an installation environment. A product installed into an installation environment does not access components in other installation environments. Incompatible products and multiple instances of the same product must be installed into different installation environments.
An installation environment consists of the following properties:
• Name Identifies the installation environment. This name is referenced in documentation asENV_NAME. On Microsoft Windows, the name is
appended to the name of Windows services created by the installer and is a component of the path to the product shortcut in the Windows Start > All Programsmenu.
• Path The folder into which the product is installed. This folder is referenced in documentation asTIBCO_HOME.
TIBCO BusinessConnect installs into a directory within aTIBCO_HOME. This directory is referenced in documentation as BC_HOME. The default value of BC_HOMEdepends on the operating system. For example, on Windows systems, the default value isC:\tibco\bc\version.
code font Code font identifies commands, code examples, filenames, pathnames, and output displayed in a command window. For example:
UseMyCommandto 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: Typeadmin.
• 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,MyCommandis enabled:
MyCommand [enable | disable]
Preface
|
ixitalic font Italic font is used in the following ways:
• To indicate a document title. For example: See TIBCO BusinessConnect 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:MyCommandPathName Key
combinations
Key names 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.
Table 1 General Typographical Conventions (Cont’d) Convention Use
Table 2 Syntax Typographical Conventions Convention Use
[ ] An optional item in a command or code syntax.
For example:
MyCommand [optional_parameter] required_parameter
| A logicalORthat 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
x
|
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 pairparam1andparam2, or the pairparam3andparam4.
MyCommand {param1 param2} | {param3 param4}
In the next example, the command requires two parameters. The first parameter can be eitherparam1orparam2and the second can be eitherparam3orparam4:
MyCommand {param1 | param2} {param3 | param4}
In the next example, the command can accept either two or three parameters.
The first parameter must beparam1. You can optionally includeparam2as the second parameter. And the last parameter is eitherparam3orparam4.
MyCommand param1 [param2] {param3 | param4}

13BC-8730 Summary: When you create an external user in TIBCO Administrator GUI under the BusinessConnect > System Management > Users > Externaltab, if you enable any gateway service permissions and set the authentication source to the LDAP server for external users, theNo Such ObjectLDAP error is thrown. However, the user is successfully created and stored in the LDAP server.
Workaround: Before creating the external user, ensure that you configure a valid value for thebc.ldap.rolebasedn.attributeproperty that is located under
BusinessConnect > System Settings > Activated Protocol Plug-ins and Properties >
BC.
BC-8729 Summary: The external users that are manually created in the LDAP server or are created by a previous version of TIBCO BusinessConnect are not displayed in TIBCO Administrator GUI under the BusinessConnect > System Management > Users >
Externaltab.
Workaround: Log in to the LDAP server, and then add theoattribute and set the value of this attribute to the associated trading partner name for these external users.
BC-8302 Summary: The sample certificate used to connect to the Gmail SMTP server can expire occasionally depending on the Gmail service.
Workaround: Download a new Gmail server certificate.

Release NotesBC-7831 Summary: When using the TIBCO BCAppManage tool to import.csxconfiguration files, Java class-loading errors are displayed occasionally after the import operation is completed in TIBCO Administrator.
Workaround: Restart TIBCO Administrator.
BC-7818 Summary: If you delete a tibbr subject in TIBCO BusinessConnect at the trading partner level, TIBCO BusinessConnect does not post messages to valid system level tibbr subjects. This behavior occurs because of the way TIBCO BusinessConnect interacts with the tibbr API.
Workaround: None.
BC-7776 Summary: Signed multiple attachments sent by using the AS1 email are not verified by TIBCO BusinessConnect.
Workaround: None.
BC-7742 Summary: If you attempt to save a tibbr subject that has been deleted in either BusinessConnect > System Settings > Visibility > tibbror BusinessConnect >
Participants > Edit Participant > Visibility, an error message is displayed. This is because tibbr subject names must be unique. After a subject is created in tibbr, it cannot be recreated, even if you have deleted it. tibbr retains subjects internally to preserve old messages posted to that subject.
Workaround: Use a different subject name.
BC-7608 Summary: When the Host Logo field in the Host Partner Type option contains a file reference type to an image that is not reachable, then the imported host gets deactivated and disables thePartnerSelfServiceprotocol if TIBCO
BusinessConnect Trading Community Management is installed and activated.
