If you want to repeat the installation of Magento Open Source on the same server, it is not necessary to download the files again.

To reinstall Magento:

1.

On the server, delete the file: app/etc/local.xml

2.

Delete any files and directories found in: var/

3.

With your browser, navigate to your Magento directory. For example:

• http://www.yourDomain.com/magento-directory

The Magento Installation Wizard launches automatically.
