Uninstall the old DC Local Server app

To fully uninstall the old DC Local Server app:

  • Uninstall the app
  • Delete the app-related data

Switching to Plauti Server

If you are uninstalling DC Local Server because of the switch to Plauti Server, first copy your DC Local Server settings:

  1. Find the configuration files in the plauti/dclocal_server folder.

    Usually this folder is located in the root directory. If you changed the running user, find it in the user directory instead.
    Windows - Root
    c:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\plauti\dclocal_server
    Windows - User
    c:\Users\username\plauti\dclocal_server
    Linux - Root
    /root/plauti/dclocal_server
    Linux - User
    /home/username/plauti/dclocal_server

  2. Copy the configuration files to a different location for safekeeping, in particular the application.properties file.

This way you can easily configure Plauti Server to be set up the same way as DC Local Server.
