Running a Silent Uninstallation

Run the SilentUninstall_Win.bat script from a command prompt.

Prerequisites
  1. Shut down the same processes on the target host as if you were running the installer manually. See the chapter in this guide that covers the type of installation you are automating.
  2. Prevent backups and virus scans from interfering with the uninstallation. You can either exclude the Unwired Platform installation directory from backups and virus scans, or temporarily disable them.
  3. Run the uninstallation script as an administrator on Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2.
Task
  1. On the host where you want to run a silent uninstallation, confirm that the SUP_HOMESUP_HOME\Uninstaller directory contains the correct version of the SilentUninstall_Win.txt configuration file that you modified for a particular uninstallation type.
  2. From a command prompt on the installation target host, navigate to the directory to which you moved the SilentUninstall_Win.bat file and launch the silent uninstallation script:
    SilentUninstall_Win.bat
  3. Check for errors in SUP_HOME\InstallLogs\SDKUninstall.log.
  4. Delete any folders and files remaining in the Sybase Mobile SDK installation directory, if the uninstaller could not remove them.
    If you cannot delete the Sybase Control Center installation directory (C:\Sybase\SCC-X_X by default), see Troubleshooting Uninstallation.
  5. Restart the system.
    Restart is necessary to delete folders and files remaining in the Unwired Platform installation directory.
  6. Repeat these steps on different servers for each uninstallation you are automating.
