Perform Post Uninstall Tasks

Perform the following steps to ensure that all the CA Risk Authentication components are removed.

  2. Stop the application server.
  3. Undeploy the following WAR files from the appropriate sub-directory in <APP-SERVER-HOME>.

    Note: Here, APP-SERVER-HOME represents the directory path where the application server (Example: Apache Tomcat) is installed.

    See the application server vendor documentation for detailed information about undeploying the WAR files.

    Note: If you have a distributed-system deployment, then locate these files on the system where you have deployed the particular application.

  4. If you used Oracle Database for the database, then delete the tabspace_arreports_<time_database_was_created>.dat file from the system running the CA Risk Authentication database.
  5. If not automatically deleted, delete the DSN entry that you created during CA Risk Authentication installation.

    To delete this entry, navigate to the odbc.ini file, open it by using a text editor, and delete the corresponding database entry. Based on your ODBC setup, this file may be available at one of the following locations:
