Blackberry application not getting installed on phone

Question

I am trying to install the application developed by me on Blackberry device. I am using Blackberry Pearl 8100 and desktop manager 4.3.0.17 to load the application.

I am getting the error message as: The application cannot be installed because some files are missing.

Answer 1

Make sure you're packaging your application as as ALX file - basically a zip file that includes your COD and an ALX (xml) descriptor file. Desktop Manager can't install apps just from a COD file (although if you have the JDE installed, you can use "javaloader" to load an app from a COD).

Answer 2

Try reinstalling device and desktop manager softwares.

I am not sure of this solution,but it might help.

Answer 3

Have you checked that you're cod file is in the same directory as the alx file when you install it?

When do you receive the error, on application startup or when you enter a specific screen?

Are you using any 3rd party software or libraries (e.g. ksoap)?
