How do you uninstall/re-install SchoolNET?

There is an issue with the PostgreSQL install if you ever try to re-install it because during the first install it creates a Windows user account called "postgres". If you re-install Postgres their installer does not recognise that you already have a user setup so it just errors.

To do a full re-install please follow these steps (in order):

  1. Uninstall Apache
  2. Uninstall PostgresSQL
  3. Delete user "Postrges"
  4. Delete the following directories (assuming you have installed everything in their default locations):
    • C:\PHP
    • C:\Intranet
    • C:\PostgresSQL (or "C:\Postgres")
    • C:\Program Files\Apache.....
  5. Run the installation (no reboot should be required before re-install)

There is an installation guide in the download or on the CD should you need it.
