Uninstalling Siebel Web Server Extension and Strong Encryption Pack


The process for uninstalling Siebel Web Server Extension (SWSE) or the Siebel Strong Encryption Pack (SSEP) is similar to the uninstallation of the Siebel Server.

Note that uninstalling SWSE also removes the Web server virtual directories for Siebel applications, which were created when you configured the SWSE. For SWSE installation information, see Installing and Configuring the Siebel Web Server Extension.

When you uninstall an SWSE, the uninstaller launches the SWSE Configuration Wizard, from which you choose the wizard task to remove an existing SWSE configuration.

Siebel Strong Encryption Pack may be installed into an existing installed instance of Siebel Server or Siebel Web Server Extension. For SSEP installation information, see Siebel Security Guide.

To uninstall SWSE or SSEP

  1. Open a new shell.
  2. Navigate to $SIEBEL_ROOT/_uninst for the installed software and enter the following command:

    uninstall.ksh product_name optional_arguments

    where:

    • product_name = The code for the product you want to uninstall:
      • eappweb (for the Siebel Web Server Extension)
      • encryption (for the Siebel Strong Encryption Pack)

        For example:

    uninstall.ksh eappweb

    uninstall.ksh eappweb -is:javaconsole -console

    uninstall.ksh eappweb -args SS_SETUP_INI=test.ini

    uninstall.ksh encryption

    If you are uninstalling SWSE, the SWSE Configuration Wizard displays, to allow you to remove configuration data.

  3. Remove configuration data, as appropriate for the SWSE. If this task is not required, click Cancel.

    After configuration data has been removed, the uninstaller displays the following message:

    The InstallShield Wizard has successfully uninstalled Siebel Web Server Extension. Choose Finish to exit the wizard.

  4. Click Finish.

For additional uninstallation information regarding the SWSE, see Restoring a Web Server After Uninstalling the SWSE.

Restoring a Web Server After Uninstalling the SWSE

After uninstalling your SWSE, you can restore your Web server using the following procedure.

To restore your Web server

  1. Copy all the backup configuration files, which were created during installation and are referenced in the following example, to their original location under the Web server directory.

    config_file_name_backup_timestamp.bak

    For example:

    obj_conf_020714204932.bak

    • Solaris
      • start
      • config/mime.types
      • config/obj.conf
      • config/magnus.conf
    • AIX, HP-UX, and Linux
      • conf/httpd.conf
      • conf/mime.types
  2. (HP-UX only) Reset any existing LANG variable to the actual directory that the symbolic link represents. If the environment variable LANG is set to a directory name that is a symbolic link, the Java uninstaller for Siebel Server will fail.

    NOTE:  The LANG variable cannot be set to univ.utf8. This setting causes the uninstaller to fail.

  3. Remove additional files that were created on the Web server as a result of installing the SWSE—particularly if you are uninstalling a previous version of SWSE.

    For example, for IBM HTTP Server, you may need to remove the library file libmod_swe.so from the modules subdirectory of the Web server installation directory. Otherwise, when you later install a more recent version of SWSE (such as the current version), the newer version of this file will not overwrite the existing file.
