How to uninstall completely from centos?

Question

I have installed redis by following instructions.

$ wget http://download.redis.io/releases/redis-5.0.5.tar.gz
$ tar xzf redis-5.0.5.tar.gz
$ cd redis-5.0.5
$ make

but I don't know how to uninstall now. Please let us share how to completely uninstall redis 5.0.5 from centos 6.10

There may be a `make uninstall` option. If not, you'll need to examine the makefile to see where `make install` copies files/directories to and manually remove them. — ivanivan, Aug 20 '19 at 13:46
Then you'd need to `drop` those tables, etc. as appropriate. — ivanivan, Aug 20 '19 at 13:49

As long as you didn't run make install there is nothing installed yet. Just remove the directory

rm -rf redis-5.0.5

i have already installed. then what should i do? – noglobalads Aug 20 '19 at 13:50
Then post your complete steps, not only part of it. – Gerald Schneider Aug 20 '19 at 13:50
already posted steps in 1st post. i just installed. – noglobalads Aug 20 '19 at 13:55
What you posted is not an installation. It's just the compilation of source code. It's not installed until you run `make install` (which you did NOT post). – Gerald Schneider Aug 20 '19 at 13:56
https://redis.io/download you can see here the installation guideline. – noglobalads Aug 20 '19 at 13:58
That guide confirms what I wrote. – Gerald Schneider Aug 20 '19 at 13:59
root@server.domain.com [~]# rm -rf redis-5.0.5 root@server.domain.com[~]# Its just return blank. – noglobalads Aug 20 '19 at 14:02
Good. It's gone. – Gerald Schneider Aug 20 '19 at 14:02
so, do you mean Redis is not installed yet, if wanna install, then it should be make install ? – noglobalads Aug 20 '19 at 14:05
Why i am seeing if removed? root@server.domain.com [~]# redis-server --version Redis server v=5.0.5 sha=00000000:0 malloc=jemalloc-5.1.0 bits=64 build=dd9490a63278a7ca root@server.domain.com [~]# – noglobalads Aug 20 '19 at 14:07

@noglobalads Nothing in your question shows that you have installed anything at all. Please edit your question to show what you have actually done. – Michael Hampton Aug 21 '19 at 03:01
