Removing Memcache and Memcached from a Centos server

Question

A while back I started looking into caching, (I think) I mistakenly installed both Memcache and Memcached.

If I cd / then I have both:

memcache/memcache-3.0.6
memcached/memcached-1.4.10

How should I go about removing these completely from the server?

I'm using Centos if that helps?

Answer 1

How did you install it? If you installed it using yum then you should be able to remove it the same way.

First list the memcache packages installed:

yum list memcache*

Then remove the packages (probably two of them):

yum remove [package name from list]
