Uninstall influxdb3 core on ubuntu 24.04

Is there an uninstall script or step by step guide for removing InfluxDB 3 Core?

Got in a right pickle as part of a 2.7 to 3 migration so want to start from scratch with a clean slate. No data yet so want to reverse the Quick install for Linux but the install_influxdb3.sh is too complex for me to take apart.

No uninstall script per say but you can delete the data directory and that should do it.

Thanks suyash but what about the server config etc ?

Once you stop it and delete that folder, all of that should be gone, meaning with fresh install, you can configure new settings and that is what new InfluxDB 3 instance will rely on. If you want to keep the old data then just point to the same data folder where the actual data is stored. Hope that helps, let me know if anything.

Many thanks suyash, will try that.
