[mapguide-users] How to remove mapguide os ?

[Jackie Ng]

If your repository is small enough, using packages is the simplest. Make a
mgp of your current repository with the Site Administrator. Nuke the old
installation, install the new one and load your mgp back in with the Site
Administrator.

Otherwise, just backup the Server/Repositories directory of your 2.4 install
and move it to a safe area. Nuke the 2.4 install, install 2.5 and then
restore the Server/Repositories directory from your safe area. 2.4 and 2.5
use the same version of dbxml so your 2.5 mgserver should just pick up from
where it left off.

Or you can do the official way. Use the backup/restore scripts in
Server/RepositoryAdmin. There's a MgOpenSourceRepositoryAdmin.pdf that
explains how to use these scripts.

For actual uninstallation of 2.4, best to use this script
(https://svn.osgeo.org/mapguide/branches/2.4/Installer/scripts/mguninstallubuntu.sh)
and then rm -rf whatever's remaining in /usr/local/mapguideopensource-2.4.0
and /usr/local/fdo-3.7.0

If you have any aliases defined, take note of them in the Site Administrator
as you'll have to re-create them after the upgrade.
