The uninstall command-line utility provides a non-interactive method to enter the command with the --no-prompt option.

Another useful argument is the --forceOnError option that continues the uninstall process when an error is encountered. If an option is incorrectly entered or if a required option is omitted and the --forceOnError option is not used, the command fails and aborts.

From the server root directory, run uninstall with the --remove-all option to remove all of the PingDirectory server’s libraries.

The optional --quiet option suppresses output information.
The following command assumes that the server is standalone and not part of a replication topology.
```
$ ./uninstall --remove-all --no-prompt --quiet --forceOnError
```
If any files or directories remain, manually remove them.
