ClearOS Market Place App Removal

Currently ther appears to be no easy way to remove apps from the ClearOS management console / Web Portal. A more in depth method is required via SSH. Below is a guide (Basic) to easy removal of Apps from the ClearOS Sysytem once already installed which are no longer required / no longer utilised.

(**** If you are worried about resource usage and want to lower these you may consider just visitng Services within the ClearOS management console, stopping the service and then disabling the service. ***) 

Pointers:- If you know the precise name of the app to be removed it is helpful. (However you are here and can only view the names of the apps from within the ClearOS Market place and hence you are here) More info on why this is important will follow.

Command line arguments follow herein , Do not include the inverted commas "etc" as below, only the argument within the inverted commas. 

Step 1:-  Open terminal on a MAC, CMD on windows or you favourite command line program as you wish.

Step 2: SSH into your ClearOS installation. You will need your installation instance IP address and Root password.
            ie..   " ssh root@10.0.0.138  "  

                   Format  :-   ssh root@ClearOS-IP-address

S
tep 3:- choose via any means the name of the app you require to remove, whether it be your memory, looking at the names in the marketplace etc.. Here are some examples of removing some of the apps.

ie: To remove MySql from the app Marketplace enter "  yum --enablerepo=* remove app-mysql  "  

Note 'MySql' in the command is 'mysql' If you enter an incorrect command due to "Case" you will get an error :- 'No Match for argument: app-MySql'

A correct command will lead to a confimation prompt: ' Is this ok [y/N]: '
After typing 'y' and entering you will get a removal confirmation '

App removal commands:--

ie: To remove MySql from the app Marketplace enter "  yum --enablerepo=* remove app-mysql  "
ie: To remove Drop box from the app Marketplace enter " yum --enablerepo=* remove app-dropbox "
ie: To remove FleShare from the app Marketplace enter  " yum --enablerepo=* remove app-flexshare  "
ie: To remove Imap Mail from the app Marketplace enter  " yum --enablerepo=* remove app-imap  "
ie: To remove Grey Listing from the app Marketplace enter  " yum --enablerepo=* remove app-greylisting  "
ie: To remove FTP from the app Marketplace enter  " yum --enablerepo=* remove app-ftp  "
ie: To remove Drop box from the app Marketplace enter "  yum --enablerepo=* remove app-antivirus  "

Hope this helps you with the removal of apps. It is important to know the correct names of the apps you are removing and i found this to be the most difficult challenge here, even though a minor task.
