$ M. g1 z4 A8 b1 W  R" `Solution
TAO would report cannot start tcserver.
TC_ROOT and TC_DATA had space in the directory name.
& }  g/ `+ S# O- [; ?7 tportal.bat would not call start_TcServer1.bat via the tcserver.xml
Edited the tcserver.xml and noted the TC_ROOT with short path name (DOS 8.3 syntax)
replacing the folder name with space.
9 _+ S9 ~/ O) P. j) k- G: MExample:

- o$ ^4 P) p5 e+ \: M3 MIt is highly recommend that TC full installation directory has no space, including NX and
any other related softwares.
For example
TC_ROOT = c:\apps\X64\TC\TC11
TC_DATA = c:\apps\x64\TC\tcdata
. H# j. U% O% `3 lX64 means 64bit TC software, while for 32 bit, please use X86
