Uninstalling the Siebel HTTP Compression Filter

If you installed the Siebel HTTP Compression Filter for a pre-7.0.4 release of Siebel 7 eBusiness Applications, then you must uninstall that filter before you enable HTTP compression in this release of Siebel eBusiness Applications.

The Siebel HTTP Compression Filter can be uninstalled in either of the following ways:

• Uninstall the Siebel Web Server Extension in your earlier release before installing the Siebel Web Server Extension in this release. The Siebel HTTP Compression Filter in the earlier release is uninstalled as part of the process. Typically, this process is part of the larger process of uninstalling all of the components of your earlier Siebel 7 eBusiness Applications deployment, and then installing all of the components of this release.

  For information about uninstalling Siebel eBusiness Applications, see Uninstalling Siebel eBusiness Applications.

• Uninstall the Siebel HTTP Compression Filter manually.

The following procedure can be used to manually remove the pre-7.0.4 Siebel HTTP Compression Filter or to confirm that it is removed.

To uninstall the Siebel HTTP Compression Filter

1. On each Web server, launch Internet Service Manager.
2. Expand the Web Server Name, right-click it, and select Properties from the drop-down list.
3. On the Internet Information Services tab, select WWW Service in the Master Properties list, and then click Edit.
4. On the ISAPI Filters tab, locate a Siebel compression filter named SiebCompress.

   NOTE:  The SiebCompress filter is not the same as the filter named Compression. Compression is a Microsoft-provided static file compression filter, and it should not be removed.

5. Select the SiebCompress filter, and then click Remove.
6. Click Apply or OK to commit the change.
7. Repeat Step 1 through Step 4 to verify that the filter has been removed.
