How to uninstall memcached on linux?

Dr. McKay · Apr 3, 2017

I installed memcached on my VPS and now I want to remove it because I don't have requirements to use this caching for my sites. How can I remove it by commands?

yum list | grep memcached

remove memcached from your server, using this code

Hello Dr. McKay,

Thanks for your question!

This can depend on the operating system you are running so I would add that to your comment. To find your OS use the following command in your terminal or CLI:

Code:

 cat /etc/os-release

Let me know of any questions!
