Uninstalling the Tiny Editors integration manually.
Before you begin:
- Determine the host_name of the server hosting HCL Connections™.
-
Get user access as the HCL Connections installer or higher administrative permissions, on both:
- The host server.
- The WebSphere Application Server Console.
-
Stop the Common WebSphere enterprise application.
-
Log in to the web interface of the WebSphere Application Server Console.
The default address is: https://host_name:9043/ibm/console
-
Navigate to Applications > Application Types > WebSphere enterprise applications.
-
Select the checkbox for Common from the list of applications and click Stop.
-
-
Determine the Connections paths (customization_path and provision_path).
-
Log in to the web interface of the WebSphere Application Server Console.
The default address is: https://host_name:9043/ibm/console
-
Expand Environment and click the WebSphere variables link.
-
Find the CONNECTIONS_CUSTOMIZATION_PATH in the variables list and record the value which will be referred to as customization_path from this point.
-
Find the CONNECTIONS_PROVISION_PATH in the variables list and record the value which will be referred to as provision_path from this point.
-
-
Remove the integration configuration directory and all contained files from customization_path/javascript/tiny/editors/connections.
-
Perform additional cleanup by:
-
Removing any backup folders under customization_path/javascript/tiny/editors such as:
- tiny-editors-connections-backup-time
- ephox-editors-connections-backup-time
- ephox-editlive-connections-backup-time
- Removing the editors folder if it is now empty.
-
Removing the tiny folder if it is now empty.
-
Removing configuration files for older versions of the integration by removing customization_path/javascript/ephox.
-
-
Delete the integration jar file from provision_path/webresources/tiny.editors.connections_version.jar where version is the integration version number.
Attention: When manually uninstalling on Microsoft Windows, you will be unable to delete the jar file if the Common enterprise application is running.
Tip: You can also remove any jar named ephox.editors.connections_oldVersion.jar which was the integration jar name before the 4.0.0 release.
-
Follow the post-customization steps to ensure the server cache is updated.
-
Start the Common WebSphere enterprise application.
-
Log in to the web interface of the WebSphere Application Server Console.
The default address is: https://host_name:9043/ibm/console
-
Navigate to Applications > Application Types > WebSphere enterprise applications.
-
Select the checkbox for Common from the list of applications and click Start.
-
-
Verify the uninstall by browsing to the edit screen for a wiki or blog to verify that the Tiny editors are not being loaded and that it has reverted to the default editor.
Note: If after performing this step Tiny Editors for HCL Connections is still available then restarting the Common enterprise application may be necessary to force a cache update.
