Uninstalling Commerce Server 2002

  • Article

To uninstall Commerce Server 2002, you must perform the following steps in the order shown. Detailed instructions for each step follow:

  • Step 1: Remove the Commerce Server 2002 Solution Sites. Perform this step to remove the Blank site, or other Solution Sites you may have downloaded from https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=6767. This step removes the Solutions Sites from the Microsoft Commerce Server\PuP Packages folder so you cannot unpack these sites again. It does not remove the unpacked Solution Sites.
  • Step 2: Remove the Commerce Server 2002 platform. Perform this step to remove the Commerce Server runtime objects, administration tools, Predictor global resource, and Direct Mailer global resource.
  • Step 3: Delete the Commerce Server 2002 installation folder.
  • Step 4: Delete the Commerce Server 2002 databases, for example, the Administration database, Data Warehouse database, Profiles database, and Catalogs database.
  • Step 5: Delete the Commerce Server 2002 Analysis server databases.
  • Step 6: Delete the Commerce Server 2002 site virtual directories. Perform this step only if you have unpacked a site.
  • Step 7: Delete the ISAPI filter (CSAuthFilter) from Internet Information Services. Perform this step only if you have set Autocookie or changed the Authentication Filter setting on a Commerce application from the default set by the Solution Site packages.
  • Step 8: Delete the Commerce Server 2002 site folders and files. Perform this step only if you have unpacked a site.
  • Step 9: Delete the Direct Mailer jobs in SQL Server. Perform this step only if you installed Direct Mailer and created Direct Mailer jobs. If you do not perform this step and you re-install Direct Mailer at a later date, the direct mail jobs from the previous installation will be enabled.
