The screen that follows will confirm your email address and allow you to continue generating a new 1-time password or you may cancel the operation.

Error. Please correct the following error(s):
User account does not exist.

If you know that you have an account but do not remember your username, send an e-mail to download-admin@tibco.com with the subject line "Password Reset Request." If you do not have an account, you will need to contact:
  • Your own organization's TIBCO Software contact to verify what accounts are available to you.
  • Your TIBCO Software Sales Representative to request one.

Authentication Failed
Root cause: Unable to authenticate for Site "TIBCO" Id "JohnSmith"(File:LogonAction.java, Meth:com.digitalriver.express.account.servlet.LogonAction.perform, Line:132)

There are two possible causes. Either the username or the password is entered incorrectly. Please note that both fields are case sensitive and the information must be entered exactly as it was assigned.

- Indicate if this is a replacement for an existing user. If so, identify the user being replaced.

Submit a request to your TIBCO Software Sales Representative with the names of the individuals who should no longer have access to the account. Upon approval the accounts will be inactivated.

Download Questions:


1) I am attempting to download a file form the site. When I click on the link next to file, I am asked if I want to "download DrillCatFiles.jsp." When I try to proceed, it is a "text only" html file. What do I need to do to download the file correctly?

The first thing is to try to "shift/click" the download button. This should enable to download the file in its correct format. If this does not work, please e-mail responses to the following questions to download-admin@tibco.com with the subject line "Product Download Issue."
  • What browser and version are you using?
  • What operating system and version are you using?
  • Are cookies enabled?
  • Is JavaScript enabled?
  • Have you been able to download other files recently?
  • Can you open the PDF Release Notes or text Readme files?

This information will allow us to provide better assistance in resolving the issue.

2) My download failed (or I cancelled it), can I resume where it left off?

Yes, provided your browser is fully HTTP 1.1 compliant supporting the "Range" protocol. Many of the current browsers support this and it should work seamlessly for both failed and cancelled downloads.

3) My download keeps failing. What do I do?

The first thing we want to check is the local machine. Verify that:
  • Cookies are enabled
  • JavaScript is enabled
  • Virus scan is not blocking the transfer
  • There is enough space in the save location to accommodate the file

If all of these are clear, try downloading the file on another machine. If you encounter the same problems, check with your IT department to make sure that your firewall allows these types of transactions. If none of these steps corrects the situation, please e-mail responses to the following questions to download-admin@tibco.com with the subject line "Product Download Issue."
  • What browser and version are you using?
  • What operating system and version are you using?
  • What is the exact error message received?

4) Whenever I click on a file to initiate a download, I am directed back to the login page. What do I do?

This service uses browser cookies to log the user into the system. If you are being sent back to the login page, please check that your browser is accepting cookies properly. In some cases, it helps to clear all existing cookies. One way to do this is to:

Please note that all requests are subject to review and approval, and some versions may only be available in physical format.

3) I found out that a new version of a product was recently released. Why didn't I receive it in my account?

Product updates are only provided to download accounts with active maintenance contracts. Once your maintenance has expired, you will stop receiving updated releases.

If you believe that your maintenance is current and that you are entitled to updates e-mail download-admin@tibco.com with the subject line "Product Entitlement Issue.

5) I need to download TIBCO Runtime Agent but I don't see it in my account. Where can I find it?

Simply click on one of these products and TIBCO Runtime Agent will be displayed at the next level. You can also use the "Search for Components by Name:" function by typing in all or part of the description (i.e., Runtime, Agent, Runtime Agent) and pressing enter. The system will display all products/components containing the description entered.
