4.2.2 Temporary directories

Temporary files are generated in the temp directory. In certain instances, the generated temporary files may remain after the installer is closed. You can remove these files manually.

When installing on Linux, the installation program uses the logged-in user's home directory as a temporary directory for storing files. As a result, messages such as the following text may appear in the console:

WARNING: could not delete temporary file /home/<username>/ismp001/1556006

When you complete the installation, you must manually delete the temporary files from the following directories:

  • (Windows) TMP or TEMP path as set in the environment variables

  • (Linux or Solaris) Logged-in user’s home directory

On UNIX-based systems, a non-root user can use the following directory as the temporary directory:

  • (Linux) /var/tmp or /usr/tmp

  • (Solaris) /var/tmp or /usr/tmp
