Removing a Civic Platform Installation
You must remove previous versions of Civic Platform base and application prior to installing Civic Platform 19.1.0.
Use the Windows Add/Remove Programs utility to remove a Civic Platform instance.
Note: We highly recommend that you do not install Civic Platform 19.1.0 on the same
server as any previous version. If you plan to keep your 8.0.x installation, you
must install 19.1.0 on a different server.
If you want to use the configuration of the to-be-removed instance as the basis for a new instance, change the name of the configuration folder of the to-be-removed instance first. See Renaming Your Configuration Folder.
Stop all Civic Platform processes before invoking the Add/Remove Programs utility and close down all Civic Platform files in use. You can stop processes from the Windows services application or from he Command prompt. |
