Solution
TAO would report cannot start tcserver.
$ Q: m& u$ h, L% t; k2 p9 pTC_ROOT and TC_DATA had space in the directory name.
$ N0 ~! E1 f/ I+ X' J1 Xportal.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)
1 l+ n8 t7 }7 U+ H4 B& R  ]' Breplacing the folder name with space.

: Y+ J. J; k, o8 BLauch portal.bat, now tcsever is started and able to login.
It is highly recommend that TC full installation directory has no space, including NX and

TC_DATA = c:\apps\x64\TC\tcdata
