Delete an Existing Derby Repository Database


Derby does not provide functionality to drop a database. A repository database can be only deleted manually.

To delete an existing Derby repository database:

  1. Disconnect from the repository (See Disconnect-from-Existing-Repository). 
  2. Shut down File-AID Services.
  3. Locate the workspace folder under the File-AID Services installation path. The default location is:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Compuware\File-AID Services\MMCServer\eclipse\workspace
  4. The workspace folder will contain a folder with the database name of the repository to be deleted. Delete that folder.
  5. Start File-AID Services.
