Cant uninstall apache????

[ambdeep]

I just downloaded apache from the official apache website and installed it using a .tar.gz file......now I cant seem to uninstall it....plz help!!!

depends how you installed it.

.deb file then it's kinda easy

sudo apt-get remove apache2

if you have compiled from the sources, just go in the directory where you have installed apache and use the next command.

make uninstall
if i'm not mistaken (i try to avoid this sort of installation)
