Uninstall IguanaX on Linux

We're sad to see you go!

But we know love never be forced. These are places you'll need to delete files from in order to clean your Linux machine of Iguana:

STEP 1: Stop the IguanaX service if running and uninstall the service to remove the service entry

In the command line,

  • Enter your Application directory (typically ~/iguana/)

  • Stop the IguanaX service if it is running

  • Uninstall the service

sudo ./iguana --service stop   
sudo ./iguana --service uninstall

STEP 2: Then delete the iguana binary file in your Application directory

Delete the iguana binary - this is safe to do any time since it's just got the application, not your data. You can also remove the Iguana ServiceErrorLog.txt file.

rm ./iguana   
rm -f ServiceErrorLog.txt

STEP 3: Remove the data from your working directory - this is your Iguana data

This is the working directory (typically ~/.IguanaX/) for Iguana which contains all your data, including instance configurations and logs.

cd ~/.IguanaX/   
rm -rf ~/.IguanaX/
