I downloaded few packages and installed on my system. But now I don't want few of those packages and I want to uninstall those.
Could please let me know about the steps how to uninstall the packages and what are the files to uninstall(.apm etc)?

Waiting for an early response.

Thanks & Regards,
Anindya

Delete your package in http://<yourdomain.com>/admin/site-map/ and http://<yourdomain.com>/acs-admin/apm/ (click on the package name and you should see uninstall somewhere below). After that, delete the package directory if you want (/var/lib/aolserver/service0/packages/<packagename> if you followed the docs), since I don't think it is done automatically.

Also, make sure you always install and test new packages on a test server.
