Thread: How to uninstall a symphony service

Hi,

I'm not sure if my symphony version (2.1) is too out of date for posting here, but I am trying to find out if there is any symphony script which can uninstall a previously installed service.

I can see that there is a program called "symmodule" which has the following options:
- install
- view
- copy
- help

but uninstall is missing. At the moment, the only way I can uninstall is via the extremely clunky web interface. To uninstall using the web interface is quite slow if you want to uninstall 100 or so services in a reasonable timeframe without getting repetitive strain injury

Thanks,

Mark

Hi Mark,

I had a quick look at the Sym 2.1 CLI source code and couldn't find anything the would delete a service. You can use symservice to disable a service.

From my memory, the service partition structure was just a directory structure with some config files. A script would have to delete text entries in the config file and delete the subdirectory.

I'll check with support if they have a script.

Hi Mark,

We don't have a script to do service deletion. I think we just deleted the whole service repository while testing. We don't have anything to selectively delete services using the command line. The only suggestion is to use the GUI and group delete.
