Sun Java System Application Server Platform Edition 9 Installation Guide

ProcedureTo Run the Uninstallation Program on Solaris or Linux

Before You Begin

Make sure that you have stopped all domains and other related processes, including command prompts using the installation directory or its subdirectories and any applications using J2SE files bundled with the product.

If you do not stop all domains before the uninstallation, orphaned processes might exist on your system after the uninstallation. Identify the processes using the ps -ef command and terminate them using the kill command.

  1. Navigate to your Application Server installation directory.

  2. Invoke the uninstall program as follows:

    • To use the uninstall that has a graphical interface, at the command prompt, type:

      ./uninstall

    • To use the uninstall that has a command-line interface, at the command prompt, type:

      ./uninstall -console

    The unistallation program removes the Application Server components. Some files and directories remain after running the uninstallation program. Carefully examine the remaining files and directories and clean them up. It is safe to remove uninstallation and installation log files after you have examined them. The installation directory is not automatically removed.
