Uninstalling 3.0

[Mike McMullen <ml...@loanprocessing.net>]

Hi all,

I have a server where I have installed SA 3.0 via the downloaded zip file on the
SA home page.

I now want to uninstall it. I can't seem to find a way to do that gracefully.

Can someone point me to the how-to on what to do?

Thanks,

Mike

Mike -

Can you tell me what your ./configure arguments were?  I can reproduce
it on my dev box and see what gets installed and where, then tell you so
you can remove it.

Sorry it's not a more elegant solution...  :-(

Hi Matt!

I tried "make uninstall" before. Here is the error I get:

[Mail-SpamAssassin-3.0.0]# make uninstall

Uninstall is unsafe and deprecated, the uninstallation was not performed.
We will show what would have been done.

no packlist file found:  at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.3/ExtUtils/Install.pm line 318.
make: *** [uninstall_from_sitedirs] Error 2


I'm not sure what to do at this point.

Thanks,

Mike

Go to the original unpack of the zipfile where you installed from and run:
         make uninstall

If you don't have it, unpack the zip and re-run ./configure (if you used 
any prefix parameters, etc, be sure to pass those again) and then do the 
make uninstall.

Be sure to remove any integrations that are calling SA before uninstalling 
(ie: if you edited procmailrc, remove that part. If you are calling it from 
amavis disable it, etc.)
