Removing IBM SPSS Data Collection Server applications
To remove IBM SPSS Data Collection Server applications, use the uninstall feature. If you simply
delete the files and folders associated with the products, the applications will not be properly
removed and you may have problems installing or removing later versions.
After you installed IBM SPSS Data Collection Server applications, you may have changed some
of the files that control how IBM® SPSS® Data Collection Interviewer Server Administration or
IBM SPSS Data Collection Server applications work. The removal procedure backs up key files,
allowing you to copy them back to their original locations after a reinstall.
Files are backed up to [INSTALL_FOLDER]\IBM\SPSS\DataCollection\6\\Backup\Interviewer
Server Administration version_date_time; for example, Interviewer Server Administration
2.3_10.15.2004_13.59.20. Inside this folder are subfolders containing files from various locations
within \Program Files and the IIS Web site folder. Files that are backed up typically include
the following:
Web.config files for Interviewer Server Administration activities
Web.config files for IBM® SPSS® Data Collection Interviewer Server activities
The Web.config file for IBM® SPSS® Data Collection Survey Tabulation
