Installing MicroStrategy Mobile for BlackBerry
For a list of supported BlackBerry devices and operating systems, see the
MicroStrategy Readmes.
The MicroStrategy Mobile application is written in Java Micro Edition
(J2ME). Multiple versions of the Java.cod files are available to support the
application on various BlackBerry operating systems. The library file
MSTRMobile.alx automatically detects which version of the files should be
installed on a given BlackBerry. By default, the application is stored on your
server in the folder C:\ Program Files\MicroStrategy\
Mobile Clients\BlackBerry Client. The folder C:\
Program Files\MicroStrategy\Mobile Clients\
BlackBerry Client for Browser Deployment contains additional
files necessary for deploying the application over the web.
There are several ways to install the MicroStrategy Mobile application:
• The recommended method is to deploy the application to multiple
devices at once, through the BlackBerry Enterprise Server (BES). For
more information on using the BES to deploy the application, see
Installing the application on multiple devices simultaneously, page 161.
• You can also make the application available on your company network for
individual users to download onto their devices. For more information on
setting up this browser-based deployment, see Installing the application
from a website, page 161.
• Individual users can use BlackBerry Desktop Manager to install the
application onto a BlackBerry. For more information about this method
of installation, see Installing the application on individual devices,
page 162.
If
you have previously installed a demonstration version of
MicroStrategy Mobile on a mobile device, you must uninstall the
demonstration version before installing the full version of
MicroStrategy Mobile.
