Hello



I on RH9 system. Simply I want to uninstall my httpd(1.3.22) service and PHP(4.2.2). I need help.

Hi,
Do you want to get rid of apache+php? If so, run:
I think :|...
See what rpm -q --what-provides /usr/sbin/apachectl.
Run that through rpm -e.

If you just want to disable it, cd to /etc/rc.d/rc.3 and remove the S*httpd file.
HTH, Taj

Thanks for your quick reply

But I got

How to avoid dependencies

Hi,
Well you could append the --no-deps option to httpd and PHP. For example:
rpm -e --no-deps httpd-*
rpm -e --no-deps php-*

Note the *'s. These should remove most of the other packages that httpd and PHP require.
--Taj

Thanks and It works.

little change
according to man --no-deps should be --nodeps

rpm -e --nodeps httpd-*
rpm -e --nodeps php-*
