Changing Service Names

Problem: If the ClusterRegistration utility cannot connect to the cluster database when you install and configure Unwired Server, an incorrect service name may be created for the server.

The service name should be "SybaseUnwiredPlatform<cluster>Server<n>," where cluster is the name of the cluster, and n indicates the order in which the server was added to the cluster.

Solution:

  1. Verify that the cluster database (clusterdb) is running.
  2. Change to <Install_Dir>\UnwiredPlatform-1_2\Servers\UnwiredServer.
  3. To remove the service name, open a command window, and run:

    mlservice remove

  4. To uninstall the service, run:

    updateProps -x

  5. To reregister the service, run:

    updateProps -r

    An appropriate value is assigned to the sup.install.number property.

  6. To re-create the service with the correct name, run:

    mlservice install
