How do i uninstall java through ssh?

hello, i want to try a different approach to my problem. i wish to uninstall all instances of java from my vps, which is CentOS 5. Previously, 1.4.2 was installed, and i installed 1.6 on top of it, which is now returning errors. I want to uninstall them both, and install only jdk 6u6 in. what are the commands to do this as a root user in ssh? thanks.

Unfortunately there is no direct or easy way to uninstall Java, so once installed the only way to remove it and all of its components completely is to reinstall OS X; however, you can remove the Java virtual machine...

  • How do I uninstall java?

    Very simple. How do I uninstall java?
    I used it once for a GoToMeeting session, but I'm quite happy not having the jvm/javac/java binaries kicking around. Short of `find | egrep -iE '(java|jvm|javac)'` and surgically removing individual files, is there an uninstaller for java?
    I lump java in to the same category of battery-wasting malware as Flash and I'm quite happy to exist without it. Help?

    There's a lot more installed than what that article says. The Java installation package includes much more than just:
    /System/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/
    Take a look at the package with Pacifist.

  • How do you uninstall JAVA 7 from a Windows 7 machine?

    Hi,
    I am going to raise a easy question to the eye. I have been running into machines that have been upgraded to JAVA 7 on a Windows 7 machine. I have been yet to remove it. When I uninstall JAVA, it leaves behind a broken icon in the control panel. when I reboot and install another version of JAVA it says: "Application Not Found".
    RevoUninstall will not even get rid of this JAVA 7. Any ideas?
    This happens on EVERY Windows 7 machine with JAVA 7 installed. It just will not come off, and has to be re-imaged.

    Hello,
       How many machines is 'EVERY machine'? Is this a single computer and Windows has been reinstalled? Are there multiple independent computers?  Is it a vanilla Windows 7 that is installed or is this an image created by a Desktop System Administrator that as been configured? Are any errors seen during the uninstall?
    Uninstalls processes can fail for a number of reasons; including, files are in use, permission issues, corrupted registry entries, file/directory changes made post install.
    These may help:

  • How to manually uninstall Java EE 5 Update 8 including Glassfish service

    Hi,
    Sorry if this is covered elsewhere, but I've done some searching and can't find it.
    I have Windows 7 professional, and I installed the Java EE SDK 5 update 8 which includes Glassfish 2.1.1 onto my system. Due to multitasking during installation (aka not paying enough attention) it installed in a really weird place ({MyUser}\AppData\Local\Temp\java_ee_sdk-5_08-jdk-6u17-windows.exe2) and I want to uninstall it and reinstall. However I cannot find an uninstall anywhere. Has anyone any ideas on how I can do this or know where the install extracts to before running so I can see if I can find it there?
    Any suggestions gratefully received!
    Thanks,
    Caroline

    After a lot more work, the "repeated-every-10-seconds" messages seem to be gone now.
    To review, I already deleted these folders and files:
         /Library/Application Support/DriveGenius
         /Applications/Drive Genius 3.app
         /Users/Library/Application Support/DriveGenius
         /Users/Library/Preferences/com.prosofteng.DriveGenius2.plist
         /Users/Library/Preferences/com.prosofteng.DGAgent.plist
    I found this file and tried to remove it:
         /Users/jimp/Library/LaunchAgents/com.prosofteng.DGMonitor.plist
    Dragging the file to the trash did not work. Trying to remove the file via the Terminal "rm" command did not work. Even doing
    "sudo rm com.prosofteng.DGMonitor.plist" would not work, resulting in the message:
    "rm: com.prosofteng.DGMonitor.plist: Operation not permitted" and the file was still there.
    I used COMMAND-I to change the file permission to READ AND WRITE and then used the VI editor in Terminal to "comment out" every line of the file by adding a "#" at the start of each line. Then I wrote out the file.
    I still could not remove the file---I don't know why--- but I suppose it is now inert and can't do anything.
    Upon restarting, the Console log no longer shows those "every-10-seconds" errors.
    I assume my problem is solved?
    I have yet to determine whether the Mac Pro will go to sleep as it used to do.
    Now I need to remember to NEVER TRY INSTALLING DRIVE GENIUS or other dangerous applications again.
    I hope these notes are of some value to other Mac 10.6.8 users out there.

  • How do I uninstall Java 7 on my Lion, so that I can run Final Cut Server again?

    One of my fellow employees thought he was doin me a favor yesterday and upgraded my java on my Lion machine... now I cannot access my Final Cut Server any more.
    How can I get back to a java version that works..... after all the java site is somewhat useless when it comes to this question.
    Any pointers will be greatly appreciated.

    Boot Camp allows you to install Windows on the hard drive of a Mac. It's more difficult and you must be very careful with the Windows installation. If you do something wrong, you may lose Mac OS X.
    Some Macs support Windows 8 > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5634?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US If your computer is supported, you can install Windows 8.
    You can install Windows 8 from a DVD or a USB drive. If you want to install Windows 8 from a USB drive, you have to buy Windows 8 in the Microsoft Store, which will allow you to download Windows 8 in a ISO file, that you will be able to burn to a USB drive using Boot Camp Assistant (it's in /Applications/Utilities).

  • How to manually uninstall Java EE SDK on windows?

    Hear about the new Java EE SDK, I uninstall previous installation and try the new one. When I install the new one, fellow error comes out.

    I refer to http://wiki.java.net/bin/view/Projects/InstallProblems. There is no answer. And I try to clean file,folder and system registry. There is still the problem.
    I wish there be a green version of Java EE SDK like eclipse. Would someone help me to manually uninstall old Java EE SDK and install a new one?

    Check your PATH environment variable - if there are any garbage entries appended to it, clean up and retry SDK installation.

    Hi
    I want to know, how to change system time through java program.
    give me a idia with example.

    There isn't any core Java API for this. Use JNI or call an external process with Runtime.exec().

    I have reinstalled Java - worked fine - thank you. I was reading the other posts about the previous version being better. SHould I uninstall again and reinstall the earlier version Javafor Mac OS 10.7?
    Stick with the latest version. In that particular case he needed the previous version because a program he uses didn't work anymore with the update.
    Also when I went to the adobe link it was all in Italian. Is there an English version or doesn't it matter?
    I think the Flash Player is multilingual. Anyway if you want to be sure go to the following page and then click "Get the latest version"

  • How to uninstall Java (JRE MSI) while keeping Internet Explorer open?

    I have a situation where I need to have the ability to uninstall Java (currently JRE 1.7 Update 75, but could really be any version in the future).  We are using the JRE MSI.  I know how to uninstall it silently just fine, but the gotcha problem comes in that we have thousands of computers and some of them may have IE running during the uninstall.
    Now normally I would just use taskkill.exe to terminate IE ahead of time then run Java uninstall.  However, we are being told for the uninstall, this isn't an option even if we notify the customers about IE closing.  So I'm looking for a command line way to uninstall Java, but allow it to be successfully uninstalled if IE is running (If a reboot is required after the fact, that is fine).
    I have tried several things without success already:
    MSIRESTARTMANAGERCONTROL=Enable (And Disable)
    IEOPEN=1
    IERESTART=1
    In every case, I keep getting a Java Window that reads the below:
    If I choose Later, then it will continue upon the next restart of the computer, which would be fine, except there doesn't seem to be a way to choose this option using the command line or a property??
    I would be even be happy to trick Java into thinking it isn't being used currently even if the browser is open, but I can't seem to figure out how Java knows it is being used or not currently used.
    (FYI, if you install Java while IE is running that is fine, and if you don't close IE after the fact then run the uninstall command right after, it uninstalls fine even though IE is running.  I believe that is the case because the plug-in didn't fully get activated in IE until a close and reopen).
    Any ideas on how this can be accomplished?  Thanks.
