Extracting the mimetypes.properties file from an engine EAR file

Procedure

To extract the mimetypes.properties file from the engine EAR file:

  1. Determine the appropriate EAR file to modify based on your application server:
    • WebSphere® Application Server: Engine-ws.ear
    • JBoss Application Server: Engine-jb.ear, Engine-jbc.ear, or Engine-jb6eap.ear
    • Oracle WebLogic Server: Engine-wl.ear
  2. Find the copy of the EAR archive file in the configuration profiles directory tree. (The Configure Bootstrap and Text Extraction task in Configuration Manager creates this copy.) For example, the path of the file might be ..\Program Files\IBM\FileNet\ContentEngine\tools\configure\profiles\Websphere\ear\Engine-ws.ear.
  3. Open the EAR archive file. For example, on a Windows-based system, you can use WinZip to open the file.
  4. In the EAR file, find and extract the engine.rar file to the file system.
  5. Open the engine.rar file.
  6. In the engine.rar file, find and extract the engine.jar file to the file system.
  7. Open the engine.jar file.
  8. In the engine.jar file, find and extract the mimetypes.properties file to the file system. (In the .jar file, the file has a res path.)
  9. Copy the mimetypes.properties file to one of the standard property file locations.
