Partial installs - how to remove them and start afresh

Hi,
I'm in the middle of installing BOXI 31 on a 32 bit unix machine, distro Red Hat Ent 5.0.
How do you uninstall the partially deployed BO install. Is there a script that removes what was installed. Or is it simply a case of Add/Remove Programs and then physically removing the files copied top the directories.
I'm keen not to lock up any of the ports from previous installs thereby affecting the workings of the correctly installed version.
Here's the error in more detail below.
Thanks for taking the time to read this post.
I've managed to partially install the software but got an error midway through of
[error] Errcode 1: cp -r /home/o2mars/perl/* /home/o2mars//perl
[error] [PostInstallScripts::WaitForCMS] CMS is not started, giving up.
~                                                                               
I presume this is due to my hosts file
# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1               localhost.localdomain localhost
::1             localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6
192.168.0.162   oxygen

Hi Caroline,
cheers for the reply.
Impatient and went ahead and removed the the directories completely - bit rash but it worked OK.
On reinstall still managed to get that error but the progress of the install as a whole didn't fall over as it did previously on about 55% of Total Progress. This time it reached about 90% then came back with the message of
BO installed with Errors etc.
I then ran the setupinit.sh, everything was OK then on login to CMC and InfoView.
I asked around the traps here (my colleagues would have loads more experience with Unix than I) and the said don't worry about it once the perl dir was there since it seemed to be copying to itself.
[o2mars@oxygen ~]$ du -hs perl
67M     perl
so not as big as you say.
It is a bit of a worry I suppose I would have preferred a clean install entirely.
So far only the Red Hat Ent 5.0 and BOXI 3.1 itself are the only programs loaded so it would have only been the partial installs that could have consumed those port resources (it happened on a previous install I did before Christmas)
Thanks for your tips
Cheers, Ed

  • SCCM 2012 SP1 - Evil Folders in Reporting Services - What Are They and How to Remove Them

    Hello All,
    There are a lot of sub-folders in the http://CentralSiteSCCM/ReportServer. They are like:
    <dir> Config_Mgr_CEN
    <dir> Config_Mgr_CEN.OLD.0
    <dir> Config_Mgr_CEN.OLD.1
    <dir> Config_Mgr_CEN.OLD.10
    <dir> Config_Mgr_CEN.OLD.100
    <dir> Config_Mgr_CEN.OLD.1000
    Only <dir> Config_Mgr_CEN is properly populated with the correct set of the default folders.
    Would you be so kind to advise on:
    What are they?
    How to remove them?
    What to do in order for them not to appear any more?
    Thank you very much in advance!

    Hi Mike,
    I ran into an issue when I did the SP1 upgrade where a majority of our reports were duplicated. I created a script to delete these duplicate reports and I've adjusted it to work for your situation. You can find the original thread here, if you're interested:
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/configmanagergeneral/thread/dc9aa3b4-cea9-4a07-87ca-2795a2dbc04e
    You'll need to know your SCCM site code and the server name to run this script.

  • How to remove bullets and spacing for url links in the Related Links iview?

    I tried to look for a property that I can edit the look-n-feel of the url links in the Related Link iView using "Theme Editor".
    All I need is to remove the bullets and increase some vertical spacing between the links.
    Currently, it looks like this:
    URL iView A
    URL Iview B
    I go through the whole section of Related Links properties, none of them seems to do what I want.
    Here are the list of properties in Related Link section (of Navigation Panel):
    Link Color
    Text Decoration of Link
    Hover Color
    Text Decoration of Hovered Link
    Initially, I thought "Text Decoration of Link" should be the right property I should look at. But there are a drop-down with 5 options: None, Underline, Blinking, Overline and Line-Through, which really can't achieve what I want.
    Thanks for advice.

    Hi, Kai.
    I checked the Related iView properties (URL Template), I don't see what layoutset it is really using. I am not sure, is that a layout set apply to the Related Link Iview?
    For the regular KM iView, I will see what Layout Set I want to apply, then I can go and change the properties (of layout coontroller, collection renderer & resource renderer)you mentioned. But for this Related Link iView, I really don't know. I guess it may be in the code itself.
    If there is a layout set for Related Link iView (or the place to apply layout set to it), can you point to me which one is that? (I did a search through the layout set names, I only find the AppQuicklinkExplorer (I used this for Dynamic Nav. Link iView before), if I can aply this layout set to Related Link iView, my problem will be solved.)
    Thanks for help.

  • Dead links - not another "how to remove them" thread

    I know this question has been answered a few times but the question is not a "how to remove them" or "what do they mean" question.
    I would like to know how this happens other than changing the file directory or information outside of iTunes. Here is a couple things I could think of that I would like some input on.
    1. All of my songs that have a ! by them were downloaded off of the internet for free (no shareware, just an actual web site).
    2. These songs were already in mp3 format prior to importing them.
    3. I made a copy of my iTunes folder on another harddrive, but still run iTunes from the orginal drive.
    4. Since I have 2 copies of iTunes song files, I deleted the original source of these files in My Music, which were in WMA format.
    Again, I did not change the file information to any of these songs. Any help would be great! Thanks!

    Thanks for the information.
    This is where you created the '!' links:
    "I have 2 harddrive in my PC. "C" is my main drive and "D" is my backup drive. iTunes stores everything on my C drive. I copied this iTunes folder (including songs, playlist info, etc) and pasted it on my D drive."
    iTunes operates as a database of information for your music files. The actual music files are stored on your PC, not within iTunes. iTunes keeps absolute references of the music file location and other information in its database file. This allows iTunes to use music files from any location on the PC: different directories/folders on the main HD, another internal drive, an external drive, or a network drive (or any combination of the above). Each song reference has a specific and hardcoded path so iTunes can find and play (or sync) it. Move the file, change the path, re-map the drive it is on, and iTunes will lose the file (giving you the '!' of a ‘Broken Link’). Lose, move or corrupt the ‘iTunes Music.itl’ file and your complete Library will ‘vanish’.
    Changing (or designating) the 'iTunes Music folder' location in the Preferences does not instruct iTunes where to look for existing songs it currently knows about. It directs iTunes where to store any new songs it Imports, or 'Adds' and copies to its Library organization (if that attribute is selected). This is an important distinction.
    You can do one of two things:
    1) Move all the files back to the C: drive where the iTunes program expect them to be, and then move them to the D: drive using iTunes
    OR
    2) Delete all the broken song references within iTunes and Rebuild the Library
    The first method will preserve your Library information: Playlists, Ratings, Last Played, Play Count. The second method will lose these attributes.
    Song attributes stored directly in each music file are as follows: Artist, Album, Song Title, Year, Comments, Compilation tag, Lyrics, Genre , Grouping, Composer, BPM, Album Artwork, Bit Rate & Kind (Both not tags - inherent to the file itself). You will not lose any of these attributes regardless of the method used to recover your Library.
    Either method should be relatively easy to accomplish as long as you can maintain some control over the file moving (it's not rocket science). If your C: drive cannot accept the temporary move of your files, you may be stuck with option 2. If you do not have many important playlists, or care about ratings, playcounts, etc., then option 2 is a bit easier.
    Post back with more questions...or with your 'choice'. We'll go from there.

    If you moved them to your iPad then they will have been removed from your Mac.  If they are no longer in the iPad's Videos app following the update then you will need to try contacting iTunes support and see if they will let you re-download them : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

  • How to stop defragmenting and start living - Revisit

    Hi,
    When deal with fragmentation, most of the time we will be directed to read the technical paper (How to stop defragmenting and start living). If i'm not mistaken, this was published in the year of 1996/1998 for Oracle version 7/8.
    Time passed and we are now at 11g and i can't help to wonder if the many good advices still hold true? I've seen posting saying forget about segment with > 1024 extents, as it doesn't degrade performance.
    I want to stick to that advice, but...its kind of old! Or maybe old is as good as gold.
    Rgds
    Ung

    Realistically, any recent Oracle version is going to use locally managed tablespaces, using either uniform or autoallocated extent sizes. In either case, it is practically impossible to have fragmentation, so there is exceptionally little that a DBA could even do if he wanted to. You don't set extent sizes at the table level any longer, you don't set PCTINCREASE, at most you pick an extent size for each tablespace and pick with tablespace an object is going to reside in.
    The principles from that white paper are still very valid. It's just that Oracle has made it exceptionally difficult to deviate from them now.

    I have downloaded the 30 day free trial using Adobe Download Assistant but I do not know how to open it and start using it.

    This was so annoying!! It took me a good couple of hours but i figured it out, you need to do the following: Go to the folder where you saved the download (in my case i saved it in My Downloads) -> click on 'Adobe Photoshop Elements 12' -> click on 'PSE 12' -> click on 'Setup' (select the icon which is a box with a shield) -> follow instructions and....voila! You will need to restart when it suggests so save anything else first, then when it reboots you should see the icon on your desktop....hpe this helps!
