Uninstalling KnowledgeTree > Uninstalling on Linux / Unix

This procedure uninstalls KnowledgeTree in a Linux/Unix environment.

Note: This chapter is not relevant for KnowledgeTreeLive, the hosted, on-demand (SaaS) version of KnowledgeTree Commercial on-premise. KnowledgeTreeLive requires no installation, upgrades, storage, firewalls, server infrastructure, or server configuration. For more information on migrating between KnowledgeTreeLive and KnowledgeTree on-premise, see the online KnowledgeTreeLive Quick Start Guide (download the PDF), or contact KnowledgeTree Sales.

Warning!

Uninstalling removes all KnowledgeTree program files. Your documents and your database remain on the file system until you delete the ktdms directory. Deleting the ktdms directory removes your documents and your directory (database); you will lose the information in these folders and files, including metadata. To retain this information, see Backup and Restore.

Perform the following steps:

1.	Open a terminal.

2.	Navigate to the ktdms directory.

3.	Run ./uninstall.

4.	When you're prompted for your MySQL admin password, enter the password you defined when installing KnowledgeTree.

5.	All your KnowledgeTree program files are removed.

Note: Your documents and database remain on the file system until you delete the ktdms

directory.

6.	The uninstall procedure shuts down the Apache server and the MySQL server.
