Download for IBM Worklight V6.1.0 Fix Pack 2

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When a project contained a custom skin, and a Worklight ifix was
  applied, then the custom skin no longer displayed properly.
  Instead, the default skin was used, and a warning was generated:
  
  "default" skin will be used, because skin name android.phone
  was not found. Add a skin or change android/js/skinLoader.js to
  return existing skin.

Problem conclusion

• The issue is fixed by changing how Worklight checks for the
  existence of the skin files. After applying the fix to studio,
  the developer would need to delete worklight-android.jar file in
  the Android environment and rebuild the Android environment to
  get the fix for the existing project.
