Hi Everyone,

I haven't seen a formal article on it yet but I would follow these steps:
I'm trying to retract all K2 components:
k2 for sharepoint - core components.wsp
k2 for sharepoint - management console.wsp
k2 for sharepoint - process portals.wsp
k2 for sharepoint - reporting web parts.wsp
k2 for sharepoint - web designer.wsp
k2 for sharepoint - workflow core.wsp
k2worklistwebpart.wsp
But some components reset to deployed... Could that be because there is a lingering site that still has the k2 feauter activated? Is there anywhere where I can see a report of all activated features on each sites?
Thanks!
Martin
This question is more SharePoint related but I found the following references to be useful. There are probably other articles but these were the first few that popped up.

Well - I decided to just run the uninstall since I thought the feature was removed...
When I ran the uninstaller - it did automatically retract and delete all of the K2 Web App features and said that the uninstall was successfull. But now, Sharepoint is down completely. Getting this error:
Server Error in '/' Application.

You got to turn off the custom error handline to see the actual error (as per the instructions on the page). This will hopefully indicate the actual issue. If this is urgent, I would also suggest logging a support ticket to see if a support engineer is able to assists you on this.
Well - thankfully this is in my Dev environment so it's not that urgent. But this is practice for removing it in prod.
I removed the custom erros and here it is:

I think it might be a stray configuration entry that wasn't removed by the uninstaller.
Backup your web.config. Remove the entry and refresh your page again. It should come back up.
That's great! It worked!
Is it safe to say that the uninstaller takes care of retracting and deleting the web app solutions?
Thanks for your help!!
Seems to be the case. However, I have spent more time installing K2 than uninstalling K2 so my memory is a bit fuzzy on this one :)
Ok cool! Well thanks a lot for your help!
I have verified the answer you provided me! :)
Cheers.
