Remove an instance

[Jim Bell, modificado hace 16 años.]

It is quite easy to add another instance in liferay, but how do we remove an instance cleanly?

Does it require a database update or property changes?

anyone ? I'm facing the same problem here

any help would be appreciated.

That's not possible yet. I don't think it should be too hard to build it yourself (and maybe donate it).

hey Jim,

Rob's right, there is currently no way to delete instances. If you want, you could create a LEP ticket.

We developed a script for Liferay 5.2.3 to do this. It removes records from tables based on a company Id, and captures a few records that don't have a company Id but a foreign key to a table that does also contain a company Id. Working on something similar for version 6.1 but it may be a while before its done. See also: http://www.liferay.com/community/forums/-/message_boards/message/15367496

I'm currently working on www.evolutionsoft.ch for upgrading to 6.1.1-ce-ga2.

We had the problem of a broken instance by deleting the only one public page at the begin on 6.0.6. The login to that instance was then no more possible.

Now that remaining instances causes an upgrade exception by having a JournalArticleStructure referring to an non existing groupID.

Could anyone provide me a cleanup script to clean the integrity errors in the DB created via allowed liferay admin actions ?

Hi Markus,

Next time please open a separate thread for your question.

You can create the script you need taking a look at the liferay API:
http://docs.liferay.com/portal/6.0/javadocs/

Probably you have all you need in the clasess JournalStructureLocalServiceUtil and GroupLocalServiceUtil.

Good luck.

This request has come up several times before. Unfortunately, the only way now is to shutdown liferay and execute sql script to delete records related to an instance.

Please DO NOT create a LPS issue for this because it has already been created.
