Chapter 2: Getting Started

Starting and stopping Unwired Accelerator

To start Unwired Accelerator, you must start both the Tomcat application server, and the Application Server Anywhere (ASA) database, and to stop UA you must stop both ASA and the Tomcat server.

StepsStarting Unwired Accelerator

  1. Select Start | Programs | Sybase | Unwired Accelerator | Start Unwired Accelerator Studio. This starts the ASA database, the Tomcat application server, and an Internet Explorer browser window.

    When the database starts, you see the icon for the Sybase ASA database in your taskbar.

    When Tomcat starts, you see a series of messages in the Tomcat window, including the following:

    On Windows:

    Starting service Tomcat-Standalone
    Apache Tomcat/4.1.29
    

    On Linux:

    Ping server successful
    
  2. On Windows, when you see this message, minimize the Tomcat window (do not close the window). You can ignore the rest of the messages.

    If you do not see this message, you can check the datamanager.log, located in x:\tmp\logs, for more information.

  3. From the Internet Explorer window, you can log in to Mobile Web Studio or Portal Interface, as described in “Accessing Mobile Web Studio” or “Accessing Portal Interface”.

StepsStopping Unwired Accelerator

  1. Select Start | Programs | Sybase | Unwired Accelerator | Stop Unwired Accelerator Studio. This stops the Tomcat application server and the ASA database, and closes the Tomcat window.

Typically, you leave the application server and database running, but you may need to stop and start the application server or database to modify the system or initialize a configuration change. If you need to stop and start the ASA database or Tomcat server independently, keep the following in mind:

The sections that follow describe how to start and stop the ASA database and Tomcat application server independently.
