We have a worklight i/OS hybrid application built and deployed to the worklight console using RTC jazz team build and the ant-builder ant tasks (6.1.0.1). The ipa packaging is done on a separate machine, though using the same level of Worklight Studio (6.1.0.1).
I've compared the wlapp files that are generated, and they are basically identical except for some whitespace characters (tabs, line feeds), probably due to the different environments (Windows vs AIX), and the following:
index.html
"WORKLIGHT_NATIVE_VERSION": "3921556017",
"WORKLIGHT_PLATFORM_VERSION": "6.1.0.01.20140311-2356",
"WORKLIGHT_NATIVE_VERSION": "1475155033",
"WORKLIGHT_PLATFORM_VERSION": "6.1.0.01.20140311-2356",
deployment.data
native=3921556017
native=1475155033
However, the direct update never happens when the wlapp is updated on the server.
on the WL.Client.connect call, the following json comes back as part of the response
gadgetProps":{"directUpdate":{},"ENVIRONMENT":"iphone"}
What are we missing here? What can be preventing the direct update from triggering?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
The 6.1.0.1 iFix version 6.1.0.01.20140518-1532 from IBM Fix Central seems to have resolved this problem for us.
And what if you are not using ant, but rather built the project in Worklight Studio straight to Xcode from then install the .ipa and test Direct Update. Does it work?
From your question it is not clear whether or not you've confirmed one or the other.
Regardless, since the v6.1.0.1 build you are using, several Direct Update-related fixes were introduce; one with close proximity to the error you mention (directUpdate:{ }), so I suggest to to open a PMR in order to receive the latest available iFix (not yet available at IBM Fix Central).

I have recently updated my eclipse mobilefirst studio to 6.3.0.00-20150106-1717
There after when I make any changes in HTML/Css/Js the changes are not reflected in the worklight we based simulator. Inorder to get the changes on the weh based simulator, i have to use run as -> run on mobilefirst development server.
In the previous version before this update what all changes in HTML/CSS/js was immediately reflected in the web based worklight simulator
Please advice
Update: the fix is now available from either IBM Fix Central or by updating from Eclipse Marketplace.

This is a known regression. A fix will be available, soon.
Check back for updates in either IBM Fix Central, or via Eclipse > Help > Check for updates in the near future.
There is no local workaround.
I followed the recommended solution:
IBM Worklight v6.0 - Error while adding an application to the Mobile Test Workbench
still got the error even though my jdk seems to be already correct
I didn't see any errors in the test workbench mobile client log (emulator), which log should I be looking at?
I suppose that you are using Android 4.4 and not Android 4.4W or 4.4L which are not yet supported. And you should have made recently an update of the Android SDK tools to version 23 (you can verify by opening the SDK Manager)
Google has modified in this release the way the tools are organized and this made MTWW regressed when instrumenting.
There is a workaround: copy <android-sdk-dir>/build-tools/20.0.0/zipalign[.exe] to <android-sdk-dir>/tools.

I had same problem. You may need hotfix or uptdate to RTW8.6.

We're using Worklight 6.1.0.0 / WebSphere 8.0.0.2 (ND/aix).
This seemed pretty close to my question too, but for version 6.0.
I've successfully done uninstall/install to our worklight console war package. However, there is some extra work on re-deploying adapters and such. I was looking for a way to just update the console. Among the ant tasks there is a target 'minimal-update', which sounds like what I'm looking for (is it?). However when all other pieces fell into place, I have an error for mapping the datasources:
ADMA0007E: A validation error occurred in task Mapping resource references to resources. The Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI) name is not specified for resource reference jdbc/WorklightDS in module Worklight with EJB name .
Contents of the 'minimal-update' task is pretty much the same as for 'install'.
I tried that as update from websphere admin console (but i should use the ant task - right?), that gave me a wizard screen to map jdbc/WorklightDS from package to jdbc/WorklightDS on server. This left me wondering how could I tell this using the ant task.
The ant target minimal-update of the sample configuration files documented at http://pic.dhe.ibm.com/infocenter/wrklight/v6r1m0/topic/com.ibm.worklight.deploy.doc/devref/c_ant_tasks_sample_config_files.html is meant to update a WAR file already deployed (and not uninstalled). In particular, on WAS, it assumes that the JNDI datasources are in place.
If you have uninstalled the WAR file, you should use the target install instead, provided that your databases were created for Worklight 6.1.
If they were created for a previous version of worklight you must upgrade their schema as well running the target 'databases' (and if it's a production installation, you might want to read all the steps in detail at http://pic.dhe.ibm.com/infocenter/wrklight/v6r1m0/topic/com.ibm.worklight.upgrade.doc/devenv/c_upgrade_to_srvr610_in_production_env.html )
I'm just getting started with some of the samples at the Getting Started site, working with the Developers Edition. Whenever I Open Worklight Console, the eclipse environment abends. I'm sure I missed a set up item, but all seemed to install well. I appreciate any help / direction. Thanks.
I tried to post an image of the error, but stackoverflow indicates I need 10 reputations to post an image. Go figure.
The first line is Java was started but returned exit code=8096
There are some hits on this indicating that the license may not be compatible with the Rational license installed. Not sure what to do with that.
There's another post indicating Environment Variable corruption, but I don't have the corrupt Temp environment variables indicated.
StackOverflow has a FAQ explaining what one can and cannot do and when. It makes sense. Read it.
Did you at least create a new Worklight project and application?
If you do that and run the application by right-clicking on the application in the project tree and choose Run As > Run on Worklight Development Server this will: start the server + build the app + deploy the app.
Then you can right-click on the project icon and choose Open Worklight Console and you will see the console...
So unless you have some errors preventing the server from loading, the above should work.
Host the image elsewhere, like imgur.com
Explain what you have installed in your Eclipse. Which Eclipse is it? Did you install only Worklight Studio, or another plug-in in addition? Which?
What are those "hits" you mention? Elaborate.
Searching for the exit code in Google, I see the following IBM tech notes:
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21303648
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21567836
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21627887
Perhaps one of them is relevant for you as well.
If you have followed Idan's advice to Run on Worklight Development Server and it is still not started, try this:
Switch to the Servers view (on the bottom pane of Eclipse by default).
Check your Worklight Development Server status
Right-click and select Clean...
Select OK when prompted to discard all publish start.
Redeploy your app using Run As > Run on Worklight Development Server
I am not sure if this would clean up your environment variable error message as I have not seen that one, but it has helped with several other errors that have caused my server to not start or run properly. (The most common one I get is an Out of Memory in the server.)
I have just upgrade my Eclipse client running Juno to Worklight 5.0.6 developer edition (5.0.6.20130311-0918)
The projects upgrade fine, but when building them and deploying to the local worklight server I get a constant 'persistency data access problem' This occurs across all of my projects and has only been seen since the update.
Any idea on what is causing this problem and how to solve?
I would add a screen shot of the issue but I am not allowed
Based on your comment - in 5.0.6, the database schema has changed, so you have missing tables now. In the Developer Edition of Worklight, upgrade is not supported (this is handled when purchasing a license and using the IBM Installation Mananger for installing Worklight).
Do you mean "HSQL"? What is "Web SQL?"
In any case you will need to clean your database so that it will be re-created, this time with the missing tables.
If you use the default database provided by Worklight (HSQL), go to your Eclipse Workspace and delete the WorklightServerHome folder. Then, re-build your application.
