How can I reset the server app to default so I can start again?

I downloaded the apple server app to my mac mini and got started on setting up my server.


I've made a mess of the whole thing and want to start again - from the beginning.


Is there away to reset to default/start again? I tried removing the app and downloading it again from the App store but that didn't work

Try this:


1. Quit Server.app

2. Move Server.app to the Trash

3. Empty the Trash

4. Acknowledge the alert stating that server services have now been turned off

5. Move /Library/Server to the Trash

6. Download Server v3 from the App Store again

7. Launch and walk through set-up again


Note: If you created an OD master during a previous install, that will still be present. You should use Server.app to remove the OD master. Also, if you enabled Time Machine then it will also still be configured after a reinstall. But other services should be in a minty fresh state at this point.
