Copied and pasted EXACTLY as shown above:
sudo /usr/NX/scripts/setup/nxserver --uninstall

NX> 704 Standalone NoMachine Server package is installed in another directory.
Why is this so hard?

[doobs]

Third time :

sudo /usr/NX/scripts/setup/nxserver –-uninstall

NX> 704 ERROR: Unknown action '–-uninstall'.

If it’s any help, I tried this:
sudo /usr/NX/scripts/setup/nxserver --update

NX> 704 NoMachine Server package is already installed in: /mnt/library/Linux/NoMachine/nomachine_9.1.24_6_x86_64/NX.
So, once more with feeling:

How do I remove NoMachine from this computer?

[doobs]

A screenshot of NoMachine not working? Dunno how to do that.

I managed to find nxserver, and no it wasn’t in /opt/NX, it was in /usr/NX/bin

The folder that I installed from was deleted after initial installation. Had no idea it would be needed it to uninstall.

So I got this:

chris@halfpint:/usr/NX/bin$ sudo ./nxserver --uninstall

nawk: cannot open "/mnt/library/Linux/NoMachine/nomachine_9.1.24_6_x86_64/NX/etc/server.cfg"
 (No such file or directory)

NX> 595 ERROR: Initialization failed. Cannot open file: /mnt/library/Linux/NoMachine/
nomachine_9.1.24_6_x86_64/NX/etc/server.cfg

NX> 595 ERROR: No such file or directory. Please try to fix the problem by

NX> 595 ERROR: running /mnt/library/Linux/NoMachine/
nomachine_9.1.24_6_x86_64/NX/scripts/setup/nxserver --install

Looking through the newly unzipped files, I find server.cfg.sample and copy it over to “/mnt/library/Linux/NoMachine/nomachine_9.1.24_6_x86_64/NX/etc/server.cfg” and edit it to reflect where (I think) the files are.

This is what server.cfg looks like now:

# Specify the path of base directory where the NX software has been

# installed.

#

ServerRoot = “/usr/NX/bin”

#

# Specify the path of the home directory of the nx user on Windows.

#

NXUserHome = “/var/NX/nx/.nx”

Now I get:

chris@halfpint:/usr/NX/bin$ sudo ./nxserver --uninstall

NX> 630 ERROR: No subscription found on this server.

NX> 630 ERROR: Please contact NoMachine to acquire a valid subscription.

So, I’m going to ask again:

How do I remove NoMachine from this computer?

Thank you

[doobs]

Well,

As it turns out, the installation is inoperative.  I can attach from other machines, but have no control in the window on other machines.  Unfortunately, I installed from the tar archive and have no idea how to remove the server install so I can start over.

Advice?

Thank you

chris
