Uninstalling¶

Uninstalling OpenGeo Suite is usually the recommended first step before updating to a new major version or upgrading to OpenGeo Suite Enterprise.

The following procedure will uninstall OpenGeo Suite. In all cases, the data directory at /var/lib/opengeo/geoserver will not be removed.

Note

These commands should be run as root.

Determine which package you installed, one of opengeo, opengeo-server, or opengeo-client. These “meta-packages” install other packages, so just uninstalling these won’t remove OpenGeo Suite.
```
yum search opengeo
```

Uninstall the packages installed as dependencies:

For opengeo-server:

yum remove postgis21-postgresql93 opengeo-tomcat geoserver geowebcache geoexplorer opengeo-dashboard opengeo-docs opengeo-server

For opengeo-client:

yum remove postgis21 pgadmin3 postgis21-gui opengeo-client

For opengeo:

yum remove postgis21-postgresql93 opengeo-tomcat geoserver geowebcache geoexplorer opengeo-dashboard opengeo-docs postgis21 pgadmin3 postgis21-gui opengeo

Note

If you encounter any errors during the uninstall process, you may need to manually uninstall tomcat 6:

rpm -e --nodeps --noscripts opengeo-tomcat
yum remove tomcat6
