About the instance Uninstall Program error message

When deleting a instance, the Uninstall Problem error message may appear. This message can reflect an issue with the uninstall process, or it can result from the instance or server no longer being available.

After checking the logs for more details regarding the error, select the appropriate option:

  • If you have corrected the error and wish to run the uninstall script again, select 'Retry the uninstallation process.'

OR

  • If the instance or server is no longer available, select 'The instance or server is not available - stop monitoring it.' This ignores any further uninstall errors for the instance, and removes the instance registration from the Precise product.

Click OK to continue according to your selection or Abort to cancel the uninstallation process.
