Uninstall/Reinstall/Upgrades
Uninstallation from Server
The More4apps products consist of a central framework in the APPS schema used by all products, and product-specific code for each product.
To uninstall a Product (e.g. Budget Wizard) but leave the framework installed, do the following in the APPS (or BOLINF) schema:
- Drop the M4APS package(s) created by the <product>_install.sql script (e.g. BW_install.sql).
To completely uninstall the More4apps Products including the XML framework do the following in the APPS (or BOLINF) schema:
- Drop all packages beginning with M4APS and the synonym M4APS_XMLQUERY
- Run the following:
delete from fnd_enabled_plsql
where plsql_name='M4APS_XML';
- If you are on R12.1 then you can remove the more4apps customization from the file $FND_TOP/admin/template/custom/orion_web_xml_1013.tmp and run Autoconfig. You can remove the servlet by deleting the m4aServlet.jar from $JAVA_TOP, however there is no harm done by leaving them in place.
- If you are on R12.2 then you can remove the more4apps customization from the files oacore_web_xml_FMW.tmp and ebs3rdpartyManifest_xml.tmp in the $FND_TOP/admin/template/custom/ directory and run Autoconfig. You can remove the servlet by removing the $JAVA_TOP/com/more4apps directory and then regenerate the customall.jar file (you will be prompted for the APPS password) by running the below command from $JAVA_TOP
command: adcgnjar
To remove Profile Options:
- There is no automated mechanism in Oracle E-Business Suite for complete removal of Profile Options. To disable the Profile Options created by the More4apps products, query them up in the "Profile Options" screen of the "Application Developer" responsibility (they all start with "More4apps%") and disable them at all levels. When not used by More4apps products the Profile Options are benign and will not affect the standard functionality of your Oracle E-Business Suite.
Reinstallation and Upgrades
The installation scripts can all be re-run. If you mistakenly removed a package (e.g. the framework package M4APS_XML) or you want to upgrade to a newer version then run the install or <product>_install.sql in the APPS (or BOLINF) schema.
To upgrade the R12 servlet, simply follow steps "Unzip m4aServlet.jar" and "Bounce Apache" from the servlet installation steps above. There is no need to redo the Autoconfig steps.
