Hello,

 

Simple question : How to uninstall OS X server (mountain lion) ?

 

If no way, can delete Server application, make a clean install, then restaure from a superDuper backup ?

Will i have the server services launched ?

    I purchased Hazel and it works just fine.  It actually caught an app I install *before* I installed Hazel.  It's worth it just for the file rules and managfment /admin capabilities.

     

    I'd buy it, install it, *re-install server* and then un-install server and see what hazel does.  I've not tried unistalling it, but I'm happy to set up a vm and try it first - but I don't know when I'll get to that.  A few days I would think.

     

    Hazel is probably worth the money, though.

    You're better off using something like Onyx for free than MacKeeper. major scam.

    Move these to the trash:

                        • The (pre-release) version of Server app.

     

                        • /Library/Preferences/com.apple.serverd.plist

                        • /Library/Preferences/com.apple.serverd_accounts.plist

                        • /Library/Preferences/com.apple.servermgrd.plist

                        • The folder /Library/Server

    I think that the easiest way to delete everything about Server.app is with AppCleaner, that's what I did

    Deleting the Server.app doesn't work for the administrators' Mac where (accidently) a local server is started (installed).

    Then you have to delete all the files in the Library and keep the Server.app to be able to manage the servers in your network.

    Move to the trash:

                        • /Library/Preferences/com.apple.serverd.plist

                        • /Library/Preferences/com.apple.serverd_accounts.plist

                        • /Library/Preferences/com.apple.servermgrd.plist

                        • The folder /Library/Server
