In this article, we'll demonstrate how to uninstall ConfigServer ModSecurity Control (CMC) from CentOS/RHEL7 or WHM/cPanel Servers. Please note that to follow either of these options you need to have root access to your dedicated server.

Steps to uninstall the CMC:

Follow these simple SSH commands from the root shell to uninstall the CMC:

1) Log in to the server via SSH as a root user.

2) Navigate to the src folder.

# cd /usr/local/src/

3) Make sure that there is no 'cmc.zip' file in that folder. If already exist, please remove them.

# rm -rf /usr/local/src/cmc.tgz

4) Download the new CMC zip file

# wget http://download.configserver.com/cmc.tgz

5) Extract the zip file and perform the below steps to uninstall it.

# tar -xzf cmc.tgz

# cd cmc

# sh uninstall.sh

# rm -rf /usr/local/src/cmc*
