Chapter 7. Uninstall JBoss

If you used the GUI installer to install , then an automatic uninstaller is also installed. From the GUI the uninstaller can be selected from the JBoss program group, if one was created at installation time. A second option is to run this uninstaller from the command line. Within the Installation directory you will find a directory called Uninstaller. Inside the Uninstaller directory you will find a jar file named uninstaller.jar. Run the uninstaller from the command line using the jar utility.

[vsr]$ java -jar uninstaller.jar

This command will launch the uninstaller program. If you wish to delete the installation directory and all its contents select the check box "Force the deletion of <installation_directory>" and hit the Uninstall button.

If no uninstaller is available, and was installed using the zip file, it may be uninstalled by simply deleting the installed directory.
