Installing a Custom Provider JAR File on Unwired Server

After you have developed your custom provider and packaged the JAR file, you must install the JAR file.

You must make your new CSI provider available to Unwired Server so it can be used in your security configuration. The JAR file needs to be installed onto the server instance by following the steps below:

  1. Shutdown the Sybase Unwired Platform server.
  2. Copy the custom provider JAR file into the SUP_HOME\Servers\UnwiredServer\lib\ext folder.
  3. Create an empty file named sup.cff in the SUP_HOME\Servers\UnwiredServer\bin\private directory.
  4. Start the server using the batch command start mode in order to regenerate the class path.

To confirm that the installation succeeded, create a security configuration using Sybase Control Center, and confirm the provider classes packaged in the installed JAR are listed as available providers. For more information, see Security Configurations in Sybase Control Center for Sybase Unwired Platform.
