How to remove iRedMail?

Posted on August 17, 2013

I have decided to go with Zoho Mail, they offer too much features and it’s for free!

The problem is, I can’t seem to remove iRedMail. Whenever I visit maghnatis.com/mail/ I get the database error.

I downloaded clear_iredmail.sh but that did not do the job. I’m gonna remove it manually but I can’t seem to figure out where it is located.

I seem to be having the same issue but removing both of the .conf files did not help me. <br>In my case, my root is being redirected to /mail/ automatically. <br>I tried grep -r -i iredmail /etc/apache2 which returned this : <br> <br>/etc/apache2/sites-available/default-ssl: SSLCertificateFile /etc/ssl/certs/iRedMail_CA.pem <br>/etc/apache2/sites-available/default-ssl: SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/ssl/private/iRedMail.key <br>/etc/apache2/conf.d/awstats.conf:# File generated by iRedMail (2014.02.11.19.26.42): <br>/etc/apache2/conf.d/awstats.conf:# Project: http://www.iredmail.org/ <br>/etc/apache2/conf.d/awstats.conf:# Community: http://www.iredmail.org/forum/ <br>/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/default-ssl: SSLCertificateFile /etc/ssl/certs/iRedMail_CA.pem <br>/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/default-ssl: SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/ssl/private/iRedMail.key <br> <br>then listing the content of /etc/apache2/conf.d/ <br>awstats.conf charset gitweb iredadmin.conf javascript-common.conf localized-error-pages other-vhosts-access-log security <br> <br>so I removed iredadmin and the awstarts conf files, restarted apache but my root is still being redirected to /mail/ <br> <br>am I missing anything here?

@colmliamoneill: Check <code>/var/www/index.html</code>—is it redirecting to /mail?

Delete /var/www/mail manually? <br> <br><pre>sudo rm -r /var/www/mail<pre>
