You can reset the SmartServer Pi to the factory default configuration, which includes resetting databases, as described below:

  1. Open a terminal window connection to the server.

  2. Enter the commands shown below to remove SmartServer Pi from your server.

    $ sudo apt-get remove --purge smartserver-software
$ sudo rm -rf /var/smartserver

  3. Follow the installation procedure using the .tar.gz package for your SmartServer Pi software version. See Installing SmartServer Pi. You do not need to recreate the /etc/smartserver directory or modify the smartserver.ini file.

  4. Once the installation is complete, use the Manage Licenses dialog to manage your customer account and activate licenses. Re-enter the Customer ID for the SmartServer Pi licenses to re-appear. The Manage Licenses dialog is accessible on system startup as well as from the SmartServer CMS.
