Uninstalling Passenger Enterprise + Apache
Uninstalling Passenger Enterprise involves two steps. The first step is to remove the Passenger files. The second step is to remove any Passenger configuration from your system.
Step 1: remove the Passenger files
Removing the Passenger files depends on how you installed Passenger.
| If Passenger is installed as follows... | ...then do this |
|---|---|
| Phusion's APT repository for Debian/Ubuntu | sudo apt-get remove -y passenger-enterprise libapache2-mod-passenger-enterprise |
| Phusion's YUM repository for Red Hat/CentOS | sudo yum remove -y passenger-enterprise mod_passenger_enterprise |
| macOS + Homebrew | brew uninstall passenger |
| Ruby gem | gem uninstall passenger-enterprise-server |
| Source tarball |
Remove the directory in which you placed the extracted Passenger files.
This directory is the same as the one pointed to by the PassengerRoot configuration directive.
|
Step 2: remove Passenger configuration from system
Inspect all your Apache configuration files, and remove any Passenger-related configuration options.
If you installed Passenger via a source tarball, then edit your shell startup file (e.g. /etc/bashrc) and ensure the Passenger bin directory is no longer in PATH.
