How to perform an uninstall

Windows users can uninstall the Erudine Behaviour Engine using the Add or Remove Programs function in the Control Panel. It is also possible to remove the Erudine Behaviour Engine using the command line, which is the technique used on non-Windows platforms such as Linux. It is also useful if you wish to uninstall in an enterprise environment before installing a newer version.

When an installation is performed every action is recorded in an uninstaller.jar file. The uninstaller.jar is created in the Uninstaller folder within the root directory of the Erudine Behaviour Engine

C:\Program Files\Erudine 2.4.x\Uninstaller on Window

/home/your_username/Erudine 2.4.x/Uninstaller on Linux

To launch the uninstaller you must run the uninstaller.jar file using the command java -jar uninstaller.jar, shown below as launched on a Windows machine:

The uninstall program launches, showing the following screen:

If the "Force the deletion" check box is checked, then all files will be removed from the installation folder. This includes any files that have been modified after the installation or any files that have been created by the user. Please ensure there are no files you wish to keep if you plan to use this option. Click the Uninstall button to remove the Erudine Behaviour Engine from the system.

It is also possible to perform an automatic uninstall using a command line. The following command line parameters may be passed in to the uninstaller.jar file:

-c
Invokes an automatic command line uninstall, which will perform an uninstall without displaying the interface.

-f
Forces deletion, removing all files from the installation folder. As when using the Add or Remove Programs option to uninstall, when using the -f option, please ensure there are no files in the installation folder that you wish to keep.

The following is an example of a command line uninstall using the force deletion option:
