How to uninstall Jenkins?

Question

This is probably very simple, but I can\'t find any hint anywhere. So how one is supposed to do that, in general and specifically on Mac?

Answer 1

Keep in mind, that in Terminal you need to add backslash before space, so the proper copy/paste will be

/Library/Application\ Support/Jenkins/Uninstall.command

p.s. sorry for the late answer :)

Answer 2

There is no uninstaller. Therefore, you need to:

• Delete the directory containing Jenkins (or, if you're deploying the war -- remove the war from your container).

• Remove ~/.jenkins.

• Remove you startup scripts.

Answer 3

My Jenkins version: 1.5.39

Execute steps:

Step 1. Go to folder /Library/Application Support/Jenkins

Step 2. Run Uninstall.command jenkins-runner.sh file.

Step 3. Check result.

It work for me.

Answer 4

run this on Terminal:

sh "/Library/Application Support/Jenkins/Uninstall.command"

Answer 5

You are right, it is simple. Run (admin password required):

'/Library/Application Support/Jenkins/Uninstall.command'

It may be necessary to do this with admin privileges using sudo.

Answer 6

On Mac; these two below commands completely remove Jenkins from your machine. just open your Terminal and execute them:

1. '/Library/Application Support/Jenkins/Uninstall.command' and
2. sudo rm -rf /var/root/.jenkins ~/.jenkins
