How to uninstall Lion Server?

I accidentally downloaded Lion Server on my laptop. I need to uninstall this. Anyone know how to uninstall?

Well, actually it's been posted some days ago. But it's not quite enough to get rid of it.
Yesterday I gave it a try and, once everything in the note is done, you still have to open Terminal and :
stop the Apache server (sudo apachectl stop to stop it until next reboot or sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.apache.httpd.plist to stop it definitely)
more important : stop the PostGRESQL database server and the collection of information you don't need anymore :
sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.ServerPerfLog.plist
sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.postgresql.postgres.plist
To revert this commands, simply run them with 'unload -w' changed in 'load -w'.
(I couldn't manage to find a graphical tool to do it, hence the Terminal commands)
If you upgraded from Snow Leopard and would like to get back the original Web Server configuration (with the ~username local web sites) you have to put back the Apache configuration file stored during the Server installation. In /private/etc/apache2, you should find a httpd.conf.bak file, to rename in httpd.conf (beforehand, you should keep a copy of the current file, if ever you change your mind). Then restart Apache (sudo apachectl graceful).

How to uninstall lion server and reformat my mac mini

Hi. I just purchased a mac mini server. I DONT LIKE THE SERVER SOFTWARE!!!!!
How can I reformat my drives and install Sno Leopard? SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME!!!

Do you have 10.6 Client? Does it boot/run on the latest Mini?
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at the top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)

How to uninstall osx server 10.6 ?

How to uninstall osx server 10.6 ?

There's no downgrade path from OS X Server to OS X client. Other than wiping the disk, and installing OS X client on the box. Or as others have done in this situation, shut down the server function(s) you're not using, and leave it alone.

How to uninstall lion

Is there anything official from APPLE on how to uninstall LION ? My Macbook shuts down if I try startup from a Snow Leapard disc. Can I just drag the entire image from my iMAC to an erased Macbook ?

Thanks for the info. Here's what I did by copying my iMAC image (SL) onto my Lionized Laptop: Connected firewire from my Laptop to my 27 inch iMAC, put the laptop in Target Disk Mode (Startup Disk System Preferences), booted the iMAC and used Disk Utility to ERASE and Restore the Laptop with my iMAC image.

To add to Frank's post .... Or you can boot from the install disks that came with your system, use Disk Utilities to erase the Lion volume and reinstall your prior OS. This assumes you want to remove Lion completely. Back up your system prior to doing this.

How to configure Lion Server as network time server?

I have Lion Server at the top of a small network of Windows 2K, Windows XP and Windows 7 machines.
I need each of those computers to synch their time to that of the Mac Server because this network operates without internet access.
I have tried various protocols from those machines to synch on the server's IP but they all fail.
It has led me to belive I need to enable a service to allow time synch to the managed computers.
But I can't find information on this. I keep getting directed to how to synch the mac to a time server or time machine configuration tips.
Thanks in advance

In Server Admin, select your server, click on Settings, then go to the General tab. You will see an option to enable the Network Time Server.

Need to know how to uninstall Lion

I hve foud out the hard way that I have several tird party programs that were supported by Snow leopard but not Lion. I use these programs all the time.... I want to uninstall lion and go back to Snow leopard... can somone tell me how I can do ths? Thanks

Downgrade Lion to Snow Leopard
1. Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Quit DU and return to the installer. Install Snow Leopard.
This will erase the whole drive so be sure to backup your files if you don't have a backup already. If you have performed a TM backup using Lion be aware that you cannot restore from that backup in Snow Leopard (see below.) I suggest you make a separate backup using Carbon Copy Cloner 3.4.1.
If you have Snow Leopard Time Machine backups, do a full system restore per #14 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions. If you have subsequent backups from Lion, you can restore newer items selectively, via the "Star Wars" display, per #15 there, but be careful; some Snow Leopard apps may not work with the Lion files.

How to use Lion Server Profile Manager to require password after screensaver

Our Company is upgrading to Lion server. One of our requirments for network security is to require a password to wake the computer from sleep or screensaver. In SL Server you would add a key to the com.apple.screensaver entery in workgroup manager.
In Profile Manager in Lion server there is a custom setting section and I have tried adding a key there but it does not seem to work. Can anyone offer some help on how to put the require password to wake from sleep or screensaver in Profile Manager so the setting gets pushed out?

Hi CodyCodes,
Just discovered the same issue today as well. Further complicating things, the screensaver timeout setting in Login Window doesn't apply to Profile Manager clients no matter what the setting. This was reproduced and confirmed by the Apple Tech I was working with. He's submitted the bug to their engineering staff. I requested that he ask them why there is no setting for password on sleep or screensaver. Hopefully this is resolved soon, as this feature is 99% of the reason we're implementing Profile Manager to begin with.
Cheers

How to download Lion server

Hi there,
i recently got a Mac mini server with Lion server preinstalled. Is there a way to redownload server (without using the restore function) since neither Lion client, nor Lion server do appear in the Mac App Store as "purchased"?

Thanks, but how does the disk assistant help me to download Lion server? As far as i understand the disk assistant helps me to recover my hdd, but i will have to redownload Lion+Server over again. That is what i do not want to do everytime i reinstall Lion Server.
What i want is having Lion and Server on an external drive, so in case of reinstalling i do not have to download it, but can install from the external drive.

How to make Lion Server serve NTP

Is there a simple way to turn on NTP serving in Lion Server? In 10.4 it was just a check box, now it's invisible. Command line only now?

This can still be set with a checkbox.
You need to run Server Admin 10.7 either on the server itself or from a 10.7 client.
Select your server from the list in Server Admin and login to it. Select the server itself from the list of items available. In the General tab check Enable Network Time Server.
Hope this helps.

How to keep Lion Server wiki service running in bootcamp windows?

I know this is a stupid question, but ...
I used to run mac mini server as the wiki & file sharing server within my team, and use vmware to load the win7 on the bootcamp partition to do some jobs which need M$ visual studio.
Now I have some new things to do with windows phone7, but unlike other simulators, windows phone7 is extremely slow if I run it in the vmware. I have to boot bootcamp and run the emulator natively, meanwhile I don't want to stop the Lion server especially the wiki services.
So the question comes:
Is there a way to migrate the existing Lion server contents to a Windows? Perhaps I need to setup windows+apache+mysql+php? It seems not a easy way.
Or anyway to boot the existing Lion partition in a windows virtual machine? Some tips? Many thanks!

Snow Leopard did the same if you used the GUI. I responded to you in your other thread. You can also simply use a different Apache. Use Macports to install your own apache, which can be managed via command line or webmin. Thus, the apple one deals with Apple stuff, and, yours deals with everything else.

How to make Lion Server alert a user of new calendar event on his iPhone?

Hi!
I'm trying to make the Lion Server alert / notify a user of new events that are added to his shared calendar... Using my own iPhone, I can add and edit events on his calendar and he can see them in iCal on his iPhone, but only if he manually launch the app. What I'd like to achieve is to have the app send out an alert--like it would with reminders and apps like that--every time I add or edit an event on his calendar.
ps. Push notifications are turned on in the Server App.
Any help appreciated!
Thanks!

How to import Lion Server VPN Configuration Profile into Profile Manager

Greetings All,
I'm working on configuring a Lion Server VPN (10.7.2) and I hit the following road block. I succesfully started the VPN server and profile manager. In fact, if I download the built-in "everyone" profile that has the pre-configured VPN to device such as an iPad things work just fine. However, I'd like to create other profiles with the same VPN configuration info so I can delegate more specifically to different groups and users. I was hoping I could simply import the VPN configuration profile that I saved in the Server dashboard when I setup the VPN service into profile manager somehow. The reason I'm going this route is because every time I try to just re-make the VPN profile it doesn't want to work. I'm not sure why, but I figure why re-invent the wheel if I don't have too. Any suggestions?

After a lot of investigating I haven't found a way to do this, I'm assuming it cannot be done.
