Uninstall Profound UI Trial

[MikeNaughton]

Hi,

We installed the Profound UI trial a while ago, but now we have decided not to pursue it, at least for now.

Would someone explain what we need to do to remove it from our iSeries? We'd like to make sure we don't miss any steps by accident.

Thank you very much,

Mike Naughton

Below are the steps to remove Profound UI from your IBM i.

1. Profound UI (by default) creates only one library on the system. This library is called PROFOUNDUI by default. You can start by removing it. There is the possibility that you chose to install the library under a different name, or decided to create multiple libraries for different test environments, etc. An easy way to find any and all of these is to run the following command:
WRKOBJ *ALL/PUI0001100

This will find all instances of one of our Profound UI programs on your system. You can remove each library where it is found.

2. The license key for the software is stored in data area: QGPL/PUIKEY. This data area can be removed unless you are planning to re-install Profound UI.

3. Now, before you can remove the server configuration, you'll want to shut down the HTTP server instance for Profound UI, if it's running. You can do so with the following command:
ENDTCPSVR SERVER(*HTTP) HTTPSVR(PROFOUNDUI)

4. Remove the folder /www/profoundui, and all subfolders and files. DO NOT remove the other /www subfolders, as they contain configuration files for any other HTTP server instances that you may have running on the system. Remove ONLY the /www/profoundui folder and contents.


5. Back in the library file system in QUSRSYS/QATMHINSTC, you'll find a member called PROFOUNDUI. Remove this member. It stores the path to the configuration file on the IFS that we removed in step 4. Again, ONLY remove the PROFOUNDUI member, as the other members contain information needed for other HTTP server instances that you may have running on the system.
