that you installed with Installation Manager.
Note: This procedure does not uninstall the database or database objects
that have been created for Build Forge. You must remove them separately
using tools for your database. For databases installed on windows,
you may be able to use Consult
your database documentation for instructions. Remove the database
or database objects after you have removed Build Forge product
components.
To uninstall product components, complete the following steps:
- Log in to the operating system using the same user account that
you used to install the product package.
Close any running programs
that you installed with Installation Manager.
- If the Build Forge engine and service are running, stop them as
follows:
Windows |
- If the engine is running in the foreground: Press Ctrl
+ c to stop the engine and Build Forge services.
Important: The most reliable method of stopping the engine and
services is to use Ctrl + c. If the engine or any Build Forge services
are still running when you uninstall, the uninstall fails.
- If the engine is running in the background: Open a command
window and enter the following command to stop the engine and services:
net stop bfengine<major number><Fix Pack Number>-<Build Number>
For
example, net stop bfengine 8.0.0.0-0-0308.
These commands stops the Build Forge engine, Apache HTTP server,
and Apache Tomcat application server.
