Topic: Uninstall Egroupware

[imcintyre]

I am trying to uninstall egroupware, but am missing something. I was not unhappy with it, just not using it. I haven't used it since last upgrade.

Anyways, I used

Code: [Select]

yum remove smeserver-egroupware

Then went into phpmyadmin and deleted database.

The next day I still get the notification from server-manager;

===
=== yum reports available updates:
===

smeserver-groupoffice.noarch             2.18.1-7.el4.sme       smecontribs 

After uninstalling egroupware as above, I tried installing gallery2 and got the following error.

[root@myserver opt]# ls

I would like to have egroupware removed and gallery2 a clean install.
Any insight into what I have done wrong would be appreciated.

I suspect you didn't follow the full uninstall instructions:

http://wiki.contribs.org/Egroupware#Uninstallation

which would have removed the MySQL DB and SME DB entries

Well I did see that but (a) since I have phpmyadmin thought I could do it manually; (b) a little suspicious of scripts that I don't know what they really do (no offence intended)

I did try that command when the problem became evident and got this result

[root@myserver ~]# sh /root/eGW_Full_Uninstall.sh
sh: /root/eGW_Full_Uninstall.sh: No such file or directory
[root@myserver ~]#

So it seems I am stuck and any help would be appreciated.

Ah, that's seems to be because the documentation is incorrect. I remember having to change it myself come to think of it. Documentation says to:

Code: [Select]

sh /root/eGW_Full_Uninstall.sh
But it should tell you to:

Code: [Select]

sh /root/eGW-Full-Uninstall.sh
(underscore versus hyphen).

Thanks, I applied the corrected information and it worked fine. I updated the wiki also.
I owe you a beer.
