Editing the cobrands.xml File

The cobrands.xml file defines the active resources for the UA server. After adding a new resource, you must manually add the resource information to cobrands.xml.

To edit the cobrands.xml file:

Navigate to the cobrands directory:
- Tomcat
  %SYBASE%\WorkSpace\DevRuntimes\UA\tomcat\tomcat\webapps\onepage\fw\cobrands
- EAServer
  Sybase\WorkSpace\DevRuntimes\EAServer\Repository\WebApplication\onepage\fw\cobrands
Create a new folder in the cobrands directory using this naming format: resource_name-resource_ID, where resource name is the name entered when you created the resource in Adding Resources, and resource ID is the portal-assigned identification number.
Navigate to the config directory, located in:
- Tomcat
  %SYBASE%\WorkSpace\DevRuntimes\UA\tomcat\tomcat\webapps\onepage\config
- EAServer
  %SYBASE%\WorkSpace\DevRuntimes\EAServer\Repository\WebApplication\onepage\config
Open cobrands.xml in any text editor and copy an existing <CobrandDef> section and paste it below the last <CobrandDef> section in the file before the </Cobrands> tag. For example, copy and paste the Sybase section.
In the section you copied, update the information to reflect the new resource. Enter:
- Rid – the resource ID generated by Mobile Web Studio; for example, 211.
- Name – the resource name that you assigned when you added the resource.
- Dir – the directory you created for the new resource where you copy the resource-specific files; for example, /fw/cobrands/newResource-211.
- Charset – the character set you want the resource to use.
- EmailCharset – the character set you want the e-mail application to use.
- EmailerSetting – indicates whether the Mobile Web Studio sends an e-mail message to the user when you create a new account. A setting of “1” indicates send an e-mail message; a setting of “0” (zero) indicates not to send a message.
  Your entry should look similar to this example:
```
<CobrandDef rid='211' 
name='newResource'
dir='/fw/cobrands/newResource-211'
charset='ISO-8859-1'
emailCharset='ISO-8859-1'
emailerSetting='1' >
</CobrandDef>
```
Save and close the cobrands.xml file.
You must now configure the new resource. Go to Configuring New Resources.
