3 5. Using Remote Worklight Server In Lab 5, we will prepare the MyMemories app for external deployment. This lab assumes you have completed the Lab 3 exercise. If you have skipped Lab 3, you may import the Lab5_MyMemories_Begin.zip from C:\WorklightLab\imports\lab5 to continue Lab 5. The step in this lab includes: Clean up app in the Worklight Development Server Connect remote server to Eclipse Deploy app to remote server Worklight 6.0 POT - Lab 5 Page 5-3

4 5.1. Lab Setup In this section, we will remove the app that has been deployed to the embedded Worklight Development Server. This lab assumes you have finished Lab 3 and has the MyMemories project deployed to the development server. We will perform a complete cleanup of the deployed project in the setup step Delete the mobile app in the Worklight Console 1. From the Eclipse workbench, right click on MyMemories project > Open Worklight Console. Page 5-4 Worklight 6.0 POT - Lab 5

5 2. In the Worklight Console, click Delete to remove the MyMemories app. Click Yes to confirm. Note that the port number for this Worklight Console is Later on in the Remote server, the Worklight Console will have a different port number. 3. Click Delete to remove the GPSLocator adapter.
