Uninstall postgresql mac how to#

9.5/ directory but I am unsure of how to wipe away all the components from Sierra that came with the Resolve 12.5.4. Perhaps the uninstaller did remove this?ĭ) nothing at all in /Library/StartupItems/Į) happy to 'sudo rm -rf /Library/PostgreSQL/9.5 but figure I should stop the server first?į) there's no /users/postgres (or /Users/postgres)Īlso, per Jay Ray's post, there is a LaunchDaemon: Would quitting the postgres processes through the Activity Monitor.app suffice? Note: the Activity Monitor needs to be set to show 'All Processes' to display postgres tasks and launching it with sudo might be required: Code: Select all sudo '/Applications/Utilities/Activity Monitor.app/Contents/MacOS/Activity Monitor'ī) there is no /Applications/PostgreSQL. As there's no /Applications/PostgreSQL, I also looked in the /Library/PostgreSQL/9.5/ directory or sub-dirs. Also, there does not appear to be any 'Stop Server' icon or files anywhere. I've run the uninstaller, and still have a bunch of PostgreSQL processes running associated with files in /Library/PostgreSQL/9.5/Ī) There's no /sbin/SystemStarter/ directory in Sierra.

With this installer, I have PostgreSQL 9.5. I am trying to uninstall PostgreSQL and pgAdmin3 using MacOSX Sierra (10.12.2) after using the Resolve 12.5.4 installer. Thank you so much for your thorough reply. Make sure nothing else on your system is using PostgreSQL before removing it. Then if you want to remove it, just trash the /Applications/PostgreSQL 8.4 folder and the /Library/PostgreSQL folder.

If you have PostgreSQL really running, in your Applications folder is a PostgreSQL 8.4 folder.
