Uninstalling Unwired Accelerator

This section provides instructions for uninstalling Unwired Accelerator using the uninstaller. Two options are available – for one option, the installer removes files, databases, and devices automatically, for the other, you must manually remove some files.

NoteBefore you start, make sure you have a home directory, permissions set, $JAVA_HOME set properly, as described in “Preinstallation tasks”. The Unwired Accelerator installer requires these environmental settings, whether installing or uninstalling Unwired Accelerator.

StepsRemoving Unwired Accelerator

In this option, the uninstaller removes the Unwired Accelerator files and the entire Tomcat application server, drops the appropriate databases, and drops the devices.

  1. Shut down Tomcat, by opening a terminal window, navigating to $SYBASE, and entering stoptomcat.sh.

  2. Navigate to $SYBASE/Uninstaller.

  3. At the command line, use one of the following commands to launch the Unwired Accelerator uninstaller:

    ./uninstallUA80
    

    or:

    java -jar uninstallUA80.jar
    
  4. Answer the uninstaller prompts. The uninstaller removes Unwired Accelerator and the Tomcat application server, and drops uaml and portaldatabase.

  5. Remove the UA log directory, UALogs<user_login>, for example, /tmp/UALogsmarkusb.

    NoteIf you find that databases are not dropped, or devices are not deleted, this may indicate a lock. See the Adaptive Server Enterprise documentation for information about locating and removing the lock. You can manually drop the databases and devices.
