Hi All,

I have created an application and am successfully able to deploy through Blue Tooth or IR. I have put the sis file in a web server. When I try to open the SIS file from the browser (pointing to the URL) in my phone(nokia 3230), I donot get the installer, I rather get a screen opened with some binary data displayed.

     This donot happen when I point to a jar file instead. In case of a jar file the installer opens and gets installed. How to invoke the installer after pointing to the SIS file through a browser in the device?
Any help would be highly appreciated
Thanks in Advance
Srinivas

Re: Deploying SIS files to the device
Your web server may be wrongly configured and send the file with a text mime type.

You should check the mime type associated with sis files.

hi stephbel,
Thanks for the post
the mime type to be set is :
application/vnd.symbian.install.
Thanks again
