Important:Stop any active Anti-Virus software before uninstalling Connect.
Some anti-virus systems are known to block the uninstallation of MySQL datafiles, as well as
blocking the uninstallation of the MySQLdatabase application itself. Therefore it is highly
recommended that any anti-virus application be stopped prior to uninstalling PlanetPress
Connect, as otherwise the Connect uninstallation might not work correctly.
Impacts upon other applications and services
l The Uninstall will terminate the installed Server / MySQL service(s).
l The following applications / services should be stopped in a controlled fashion, before
running the PlanetPress Connect Uninstall:
1. PlanetPress Connect
2. Connect products on remote systems which refer to this MySQL database.
3. Any Connect Workflow using PlanetPress Connect plugins which connect to this
server.
