Uninstalling ALDSP

For most platforms you can automatically remove system-installed, unmodified ALDSP artifacts from your system. After ALDSP has been uninstalled, you can manually remove any extra files, such as modified samples or other user-created files, which were not removed automatically by the uninstaller.

You should undeploy any ALDSP applications before uninstalling ALDSP from your system. For information about undeploying, see the topic “Undeploying Deployed Applications” in the WebLogic Server documentation.

Automated Uninstallation

To uninstall ALDSP:

  1. Back up any data you want to retain for use with a new installation.
  2. Shut down your server.
  3. Run the ALDSP uninstaller.
    • On Windows systems, choose the following:
    • Start > All Programs > BEA Products > Uninstall BEA Products

    • On UNIX and Linux systems, run the following command in cases when you installed using GUI mode (as described in Installing ALDSP Using GUI Mode):
    • <aldsp_home>/uninstall/uninstall.sh

      Alternatively, run the following command with the -i CONSOLE option in cases when you installed using Console mode (as described in Installing ALDSP Using Console or Silent Mode)

      <aldsp_home>/uninstall/uninstall.sh -i CONSOLE

  4. After the uninstallation, delete the aldsp_3.2 folder in the <bea_home> directory. In addition. you may need to remove some other files manually.
  5. When the uninstall is completed, you may be notified that some files could not be removed. This could be a result of new files that were either generated or user-created after ALDSP was installed.

    For example, if you added new target schemas, stored queries, Web services, and so on to the ALDSP repository make sure that you save them elsewhere before proceeding to the next step.

    Note: The Uninstall option does not remove any ALDSP dataspaces or other WorkSpace Studio applications that you have created if they are created outside the <aldsp_home> directory. It is advised that you created your domains and other projects outside <aldsp_home> directory.
