Deleting and Redeploying 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 $HOME/.openamcfg
In the configuration store, delete the entries under the configured AM suffix (by default
ou=am-config
).Delete any cached files from the container. For example, on Tomcat, files are cached in a folder named after the deployment path, such as
/path/to/tomcat/work/Catalina/localhost/deployment path
. Use a command such as the following to delete these cached files:$
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
