MWA Testing & Error Logging
Configuration Files mwa.cfg: This file has information about the DBC file location, Log Dir Location, Telnet Port
no Location. This info will be used by Mobile Applications on runtime. default_key.ini: This file is used to map the keys of the mobile device to some specific
functionality. Use the default file if you don’t want to customize anything. deviceIP.ini: This file maps the configuration files and host name with the mobile device
MWA Server Startup and Shutdown mwactl.sh: This file is used to start/stop the MWA listener on specific port. mwactl.sh start <port no> to Start the services on the Listener mwactl.sh -login <userid/pwd> stop_force <port no> to stop the services on the Listener
File Location $MWA_TOP/bin $MWA_TOP/secure $INST_TOP/admin/scripts $INST_TOP/admin/install In R12, INST_TOP may look like: /u01/appldev/DEV/inst/apps/DEV_w-oraap01
Log Files The log files are located under $INST_TOP/logs The Logging Levels are Fatal, Error, Warning, Debug & Trace All the log files start with Telnet_port_no as a prefix
