Ahhh, welcome fellow Minnesotan.
1st: only run a *single* instance on a server installation.
2nd: do a search on this list for uninstall info, it's plentiful.
3rd: In the GUI look at the drop-down menu Instance when the db is
set to OFFLINE. You cannot drop an instance in admin or online mode.
Good luck,
Kevin

Subject: SAPDB Locked Up
Hello,
I have SAPDB 7.4 installed on Windows XP. I've used the DB Manager to
create 3 instances. I'm having problems that make sapdb unusable.
1. How do I delete an instance? I cannot find this in any of the
documentation?
2. How do I completely remove sapdb from my computer?
3. When I was loading data to a table, the database locked up. There were
no other operations occurring, and the load was simply the insert of about
100,000 records. I had to kill the loading process. I ran the exact same
load job into Microsoft Access and it worked. I believe somehow sapdb was
locking itself, but I'm not sure. So, I tried dropping the table and
recreating it. This did not help, and I ran into the same problem. Then I
tried recreating the instance. This did not help. Then I tried
uninstalling sapdb from the computer. This was a difficult process. After
I reinstalled it, I created the instance again, and it said it was already
there. I must have not uninstalled it completely. And, when it tries to
install an instance, it fails and I get this message: 24994 runtime
environment error [db_cold -f]; -2, Kernel start failed
Any help would be appreciated.
