AirVPN-Suite uninstall.sh won't run

[Guest]

Hey,

I have downloaded and installed AirVPN-Suite. Now I want to uninstall it again, but when I try to run uninstall.sh that came with it I get the following message:

"
AirVPN suite uninstallation script

Do you want to completely uninstall AirVPN Suite? [y/n] y

System is using systemd

ERROR: D-Bus is not properly configured or not available
Uninstallation aborted
"

How do I solve this? Please consider that I don't really know what I am doing and am not tech savvy at all.

You used sudo, right?

$ sudo ./uninstall.sh

.

Yes I did,

Okay. Can you post the output of this little command?

for dir in /etc/dbus-1/system.d /usr/local/etc/dbus-1/system.d /usr/share/dbus-1/system.d /usr/local/share/dbus-1/system.d; do echo "$dir:"; find "$dir" -name org.airvpn.server.conf -print; done

Okay. Now the output of this one, please:

ls -la /etc/dbus-1/system.d/*airvpn*

.

ls: cannot access '/etc/dbus-1/system.d/*airvpn*': No such file or directory

Interesting. Not sure what happened there. You could try installing, then uninstalling the suite.

I gave that a try but it didn't change anything

I guess it doesn't do much harm keeping it installed, I guess it doesn't do much in the state that it's in, but in principal I like to clean up the messes I make after installing all sorts of programs.

That's why it's generally preferred to use the package manager for software management. It knows what to remove.

Which distribution are you running?

Okay, this should actually be well tested, then. But if an installation and an immediate uninstallation don't work, I don't see where the problem is, then…
Could you create a support ticket, please? It could point at a bug in the install/uninstall scripts.
