Deleting the applications using WLST

Question

Hi Gurus,
I have been trying to delete the my application by using the command like this
delete(“TestApp”,”AppDeployments”);
But get an error every time I run this command saying
WLSTException: ‘Error occured while performing delete : Cannot delete MBean of type AppDeployment with name TestApp. You can only delete MBeans children to the current cmo. \nTo view the children types that you can delete, use listChildTypes().’
When i try to run this command as mentioned in the error
listChildTypes()
I do not see any MBeans which can help in deleting my TestApp, what am i doing wrong here? How can i delete the application?
Thanks in advance.

HI,
The Indentation (The space before a statement) is very important in WLST because the control statements like if{} and Loops like for{} and while{} starts and ends based on the Indentation.
Please use the below corrected script:
url=t3://localhost:8001
username=weblogic
password=weblogic
app.1=MyApp1
app.2=MyApp2
app.3=MyApp3And following will be your WLST Script:
from java.io import FileInputStream
propInputStream = FileInputStream("test.properties")
configProps = Properties()
configProps.load(propInputStream)
Url = configProps.get("url")
print 'url=', Url
User = configProps.get("username")
print 'User=', User
Password = configProps.get("password")
print 'Password = ', Password
connect(User,Password,Url)
config()
cd ('Applications')
for i in 1,2,3:
     App = configProps.get("app."+str(i))
     delete (App)
     print 'Application ',App,' has been deleted Successfully..!!!'
     i =i+1
So Now you need to just make changes in the Properties file...No need to touch anything in the WLST Script except the For Loop Count.Which is equal to the Number of applications which you want to delete ;)
