Removing Adaptive Server

Only actions performed by the Installer are removed during an
uninstallation process. This means that files or registry entries created
after installation are not removed by the uninstaller and must be removed
by the customer after the uninstall is completed. Where possible these
actions are identified in this chapter.

If Adaptive Server version 15.0.2 is installed on top of an existing
Adaptive Server 15.0.1, Adaptive Server version 15.0.1 creates a shortcut
that launches the uninstaller, while Adaptive Server 15.0.2 registers the
uninstaller with the Change/Drop Programs option on the control panel.
Use the Change/Drop Programs option to remove Adaptive Server. This
does not remove some of the shortcuts created by the Adaptive Server
version 15.0.1 installer; you must manually remove those shortcuts.

Uninstalling Adaptive Server 15.0.2

1

Shut down all servers prior to running the uninstall program. See
“Starting and Stopping Servers” in the Configuration Guide.

On Windows, stop all services using the Services option from the
Control Panel. If any of the services are marked to automatically start,
change them to be started manually. Restart the system to release any
DLLs that are already loaded into memory.

2

Run Start | Programs | Sybase | Adaptive Server Enterprise | Server
Config, click remove “Remove Server”.

3

Launch the uninstall program using the Change/Drop Programs
option from the Control Panel.

4

Once the Uninstall Welcome window displays, click Next to
