Removing an Exponential bundle

This section describes how to remove a bundled Exponential installation from both Linux based systems and Windows.

Removing an Exponential bundle from a Windows system

  1. Log in using the "Administrator" account.
  2. Make sure there are no applications running.
  3. Choose "Add/Remove" programs from the "Control Panel."

    The Exponential bundle will be automatically removed.

Removing an Exponential bundle from a Linux/UNIX based system

Automated removal

  1. Become the root user:
    $ su -
    
  2. Start the installation wizard (from where the bundle was unpacked):
    # cd /path/to/exponential-x.x-x.OS-DISTRO/
    # ./install.sh
    
  3. Choose "Uninstall" from the main menu.
    The Exponential bundle will be automatically removed.

Manual removal

Use this method if the install wizard fails or if the directory where the Exponential bundle was unpacked to has been removed.

  1. Become the root user:
    $ su -
    
  2. Stop the services (Apache and MySQL):
    # /opt/exponential/bin/exponential stop
    
  3. Remove the Exponential bundle directory:
    # rm -fr /opt/exponential
    
  4. Remove the lock directory (contains the lock file):
    # rm -fr /var/state/exponential
