Hi @enfein I entered these commands , but when you want to install mita again , it says that files still exists .

sudo dpkg -P mita sudo rm -rf /etc/mita sudo userdel mita

[enfein]

it says that files still exists

Can you show an error message?

[empireofpersia]

@enfein It's not an error . When I entered all the above commands , It must remove ALL file and folders related to Mita . After entering all above commands for uninstalling , when you want to reinstall Mita again , after "sudo dpkg -i mita " command , it shows a message that files ALREADY INSTALLED and it just overriding the files . [ It should be like the first time that I installed Mita ,but it's not ]

I see. Let me check deb and rpm script.

@ellahmezar Can you download https://github.com/enfein/mieru/blob/main/tools/uninstall_mita.py and execute that in your server? That will remove every file related to mita proxy server.

@enfein I can download it on my server , but I don't know how to execute it

[enfein]

After you download the file, run

sudo python3 uninstall_mita.py

@enfein Are you sure that this script will remove ALL files and folder related to mita in ubuntu vps ? https://github.com/enfein/mieru/blob/main/tools/uninstall_mita.py

[enfein]

I think so. You should no longer see a file already installed.

I also put the following content in the script. Please read carefully.
