Manually build Tizen apps and deploy

Question

I'm following instructions found on this site to manually build my Tizen project: https://wiki.tizen.org/wiki/Manually_installing_apps

But when I try installing it I get this error: "## wrt-installer: EKknEHu6Xk installation has failed - installation or update not allowed; invalid mode"

Has anyone else run into similar problems?

Thanks

Answer 1

Do you have the time on the device / emulator up to date, because if there is a difference between the OS time that host the IDE and the device/emulator the widget install fails.

You might want to check other modes of deployment here: How do I deploy a Tizen application to the Tizen emulator?

Also if you manually build the .wgt package without the IDE there are severally things that could go wrong in config.xml file (and having a config.xml and an index.html is mandatory.) In this case you can include the config.xml here and eventually I can point you to what might have gone wrong.

Tizen SDK provide command line tools for developer who like console rather than UI environment.

You can try this. Open your console.(In case of Ubuntu , Ctrl+Alt+t ) I suppose you already install Tizen SDK.

web-install -w hellotizen.wgt

Tizen SDK Help

I hope this could help you.

The easiest way is to use sdb tool from SDK (tizen-sdk/tools):

sdb install <full_package_file_path>

For example:

sdb install ~/workspace/myApp/myApp.wgt

There is difference between manually building and installing applications. To build the app you need to use your certificate - that is why there is SDK. To install app you can use SDK or command line. I am afraid that right now you are unable to build applications on your own, without signing the application.
