Delete and redeploy AM

If you need to delete your configuration and start the process from the beginning, follow these steps:

Stop the AM web application to clear the configuration held in memory.

The following example shuts down Apache Tomcat:

$ /path/to/tomcat/bin/shutdown.sh
Password:
Using CATALINA_BASE:   /path/to/tomcat
Using CATALINA_HOME:   /path/to/tomcat
Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: /path/to/tomcat/temp
Using JRE_HOME:        /path/to/jdk/jre
Using CLASSPATH:
/path/to/tomcat/bin/bootstrap.jar:/path/to/tomcat/bin/tomcat-juli.jar

Delete the AM configuration files, by default under the $HOME of the user running the web application container:
```
$ rm -rf $HOME/openam $HOME/.openamcfg
```
When installing or reinstalling a standalone AM instance, you must ensure the configuration store used does not contain previous configuration data.

You should either install a new, clean instance of DS, or delete the entries under the configured AM suffix (by default ou=am-config) of an existing instance.

Note that when adding a server to an existing deployment, you must not delete the configuration from DS, as it is shared by all servers in the deployment. See Add a server to a site.
Delete any cached files from the container.

For example, on Tomcat, files are cached in a folder named after the deployment path, such as /path/to/tomcat/work/Catalina/localhost/deployment path. Use a command such as the following to delete these cached files:
```
$ rm -rf /path/to/tomcat/work/Catalina/localhost/openam
```

Restart the AM web application.

The following example starts the Tomcat container:

$ /path/to/tomcat/bin/startup.sh
Password:
Using CATALINA_BASE:   /path/to/tomcat
Using CATALINA_HOME:   /path/to/tomcat
Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: /path/to/tomcat/temp
Using JRE_HOME:        /path/to/jdk/jre
Using CLASSPATH:
/path/to/tomcat/bin/bootstrap.jar:/path/to/tomcat/bin/tomcat-juli.jar
