Uninstalling the Software

To uninstall the SDK software, complete one of the following procedures:

To Run the Uninstallation Program on Solaris or Linux

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.

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 the installation directory.
  2. Run the uninstallation program.

    At the command prompt, type: ./uninstall

The uninstallation program removes the SDK 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.

To Run the Uninstallation Program on Windows

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.

If you do not stop all domains before the uninstallation, orphaned processes might exist on your system after the uninstallation. On Windows, these processes interfere with the uninstallation, because the uninstallation program is unable to remove files that are in use. Identify the processes using the Task Manager and terminate them using the End Task or End Process buttons.

  1. Navigate to the Control Panel.
  2. Choose Add/Remove Programs.
  3. From the list of installed programs, select Java Platform, Enterprise Edition 5 SDK.
  4. Click Remove.

    The unistallation program removes the SDK and all its 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.
