Talend Installer: known issues and known limitations

Issue

Workaround

When Talend Administration Center and Talend JobServer are installed on the same host, the license fails to get uploaded into Talend Administration Center. Import the license during the first login into Talend Administration Center.
The MongoDB embedded into the Installer does not support secured / SSL configuration mode. To install a platform with secured connection with MongoDB, install a MongoDB edition which supports this feature and perform an installation connecting to this external MongoDB instance.
The Talend Tools Installer/Talend Studio Installer cannot be signed with a Windows Certificate.

When running Talend Tools Installer/Talend Studio Installer, a Windows protected your PC prompt may appear.

To continue with the installation, click Run anyway when prompted.
Unzip Talend-LogServer-VA.B.C-x86_64.zip using 7-Zip for the manual installation of Talend Log Server does not work and will not unzip all files.
When starting the Talend Log Server some files are missing which leads to the following exception:

    • In a silent installation, set the value of tacInstallNexus to 0 in the option file : tacInstallNexus=0.
