Hi,

I want to uninstall it. As there are no uninstaller, I am thinking to
install it manually.

[root@arup]# find / -name postgresql
find: ‘/var/run/user/1000/gvfs’: Permission denied
/etc/init.d/postgresql
/etc/sysconfig/SuSEfirewall2.d/services/postgresql
/etc/sysconfig/postgresql
/opt/PostgreSQL/9.3/include/postgresql
/opt/PostgreSQL/9.3/lib/postgresql
/opt/PostgreSQL/9.3/doc/postgresql
/opt/PostgreSQL/9.3/share/postgresql

Can you tell me which of those files I have to remove? Or is there any other
safe approach or not ?

I found this link -
http://www.enterprisedb.com/docs/en/9.3/pginstguide/PostgreSQL_Installation_Guide-13.htm#P413_27929

And tried -

[root@arup]# uninstall-postgresql
If 'uninstall-postgresql' is not a typo you can use command-not-found to
lookup the package that contains it, like this:
cnf uninstall-postgresql
[root@arup]# ls /opt/PostgresPlus/
ls: cannot access /opt/PostgresPlus/: No such file or directory
[root@arup]#

Nothing worked.

Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place. Therefore,
if you write the code as cleverly as possible, you are, by definition, not
smart enough to debug it.

I uninstalled finally -

[root@arup]# find /opt -name uninstall-postgresql
/opt/PostgreSQL/9.3/uninstall-postgresql
[root@arup]# /opt/PostgreSQL/9.3/uninstall-postgresql

And it got uninstalled. Then I deleted the postgres user

[root@arup]# userdel postgres
no crontab for postgres

and manually removed some file :

[root@arup]# rm -rf /opt/PostgreSQL/
[root@arup]# ls /opt/
