Unable to delete service provider in wso2

Question

I have seen two service providers added to my wso2 installation.

As I try to delete any of the service providers I get an error

Error while removing application: Deletion of system applications are not allowed. Application Name: XXX

I have logged in from admin user and still, I am not able to delete it

I tried giving permissions of service provider explicitly to the admin user but still the same error

Hope you are using IS 5.11.0 above. Conosle and MyAccount are the two systems apps available in the IS pack. It doesn't allow to modify/ delete the system apps.

• Console is the newer portal for administrative tasks. https://stackoverflow.com/a/65733363/10055162
• MyAccount is the newer version of previous user portal/ dashboard.

So deleting these apps are not recommended.

Anyhow, If you want to remove both Myaccount and Console apps out of the readonly apps (allow to modify the app configs/ delete the apps), use the following config.

[system_applications]
read_only_apps = []

Then restart the server. You will be able to do configuration changes now. Refer:
