Solution
' O" _$ @5 I2 z' m1 |TAO would report cannot start tcserver.
TC_ROOT and TC_DATA had space in the directory name.
portal.bat would not call start_TcServer1.bat via the tcserver.xml
. [$ o" R5 _: ~  L0 LEdited the tcserver.xml and noted the TC_ROOT with short path name (DOS 8.3 syntax)
replacing the folder name with space.

C:\PROGRA~1\TC_ROOT & C:\PROGRA~1\TC_DATA
3 M2 A0 Q* e% `6 o: h$ _5 x$ vLauch portal.bat, now tcsever is started and able to login.
0 E* s7 d- ~  Z0 `# i: xIt is highly recommend that TC full installation directory has no space, including NX and
any other related softwares.
For example
; z* C/ M4 o1 fTC_ROOT = c:\apps\X64\TC\TC11
TC_DATA = c:\apps\x64\TC\tcdata
