You must start Unwired Platform server services before you can access Unwired Server from Sybase Control Center or Sybase Unwired WorkSpace. Sometimes you must stop these services to install, uninstall, or upgrade related software.
Sybase recommends that you use the manual option to start and stop Sybase Unwired Platform services only for debugging and troubleshooting purposes.
If you are routinely starting and stopping Unwired Server, you should use Sybase Control Center for that purpose. Sybase Control Center allows you to manage local and remote servers from a single location, and is more efficient than starting and stopping with services or desktop shortcuts.
The Windows Start menu or desktop shortcuts affect a larger set of Unwired server services, but only the host where Windows is running
