Uninstall apache-tomcat-6.0.18 - help required !!!


Hi!

I have apache-tomcat-6.0.18 installed in /opt of my linux machine.

I would like to uninstall it and reinstall properly.

I tried - yum remove tomcat

I get the following message
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
Setting up Remove Process
No Match for argument: tomcat
No Packages marked for removal


But I find the tomcat directory and all its subdirectories inside.

Can some pl guide me on this?

Thank you
Ven

If you read your post, you'll see what the problem is. You have apache-tomcat-6.0.18 installed, but are typing in "remove tomcat".

Try "yum remove apache-tomcat-6.0.18"....tomcat is NOT the name of the package.
