where can i get MIME files for serving blackberry apps?

I had deployed my blackberry app and i have two files from deliverables\Web: those are .jad and .cod files. I have uploaded them to my web server.

I searched on more articles and I must install MIME files to web server so a user can download .jad file and setup the app on the device. I tried to solve this issue but i cannot .

So where can i get MIME files and how can I install on windows server?

Solution

  • To serve out BlackBerry apps from your own web server, you'll need to configure the MIME types for jad and cod files on your server.

    For Apache's HTTP server, I use these MIME type mappings in my httpd.conf file:

    AddType application/vnd.rim.cod cod
AddType text/vnd.sun.j2me.app-descriptor jad

    To configure the .jad and .cod file MIME types in IIS, refer to this document. The idea is the same, though. You need to associate text/vnd.sun.j2me.app-descriptor with the .jad file extension (and so on, for the .cod file extension).
