uninstall old wowza

Wowza Streaming Engine

Hi,

I have to uninstall wowza from our client’s server. Their server is:

CentOS release 5.6

Do I just run this command?:

rm -rf /usr/local/WowzaMediaServerPro

Thanks,

Ashish

Ashish,

Are you confirming what the User Guide says?

Actually, the above should not be necessary. Follow the User Guide instructions for installing and un-installing Wowza. Those instructions should be complete. If not, let us know. Whatever instructions you find in the User Guide should be accurate and can be followed without confirmation, which is the whole idea of a User Guide.

Hi Richard,

Yes. I just wanted to confirm if I need additional steps other than the command above.

Thanks,

Ashish

You might also have to delete the “WowzaMediaServer” service script in:

/sbin/service

or

/etc/init.d/

And these files:

/usr/share/doc/wowzamediaserver

/usr/share/doc/wowzamediaserver/copyright

/usr/share/doc/wowzamediaserver/changelog.Debian.gz

/usr/bin/WowzaMediaServerd

Using a package manager to purge the package usually does all that for .deb and .rpm packages.
