4 If you need to deploy the server side project that is packaged in the RichClientHelloWorldEAR file to another server machine, change the server IP address and the port number in the following connection files in the client side project:

Config.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<config>
<btt.xml path="http://server_IP_address:port_number/RichClientHelloWorldRCS/btt/client/btt.xml"/>
</config>

Activator.java

// Initiate the BTT run time environment
InitManager.reset("http://server_IP_address:port_number/RichClientHelloWorldRCS/btt/client/btt.xml");

5 Turn on the compatibility mode in project preference:

▪ Click Window > Preferences.

▪ Expand Transaction Editor under BTT, and then click Compatibility Mode.
