Cannot remove NGINX
Solution 1
nginx
is a metapackage, so you need to remove whatever was installed by this package. If doing sudo apt-get autoremove
doesn't do the trick, you can run sudo apt-get remove nginx-core nginx-full nginx-light nginx-extras nginx-naxsi nginx-common
(you probably have only one of these packages installed, but the command shouldn't fail).
Solution 2
sudo apt-get remove --purge nginx*
will remove whatever is installed and is related to nginx, including configuration files. It will also list packages available in repositories which match the regex nginx*
and are not installed.
There is a difference between apt-get remove
and apt-get purge
. The --purge
option removes also the configuration files. It is useful for a clean reinstall.
Typing the command:
sudo apt-get remove --purge nginx*
will result in:
The following packages will be REMOVED:
nginx-common*
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 1 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
After this operation, 0 B of additional disk space will be used.

saiarcot895 about 10 yearsI typically go by the size of the package. If the Installed-Size of the package (
apt-cache show nginx
, orapt-cache show ubuntu-desktop
) is less than 100, then there's a good chance that it's just a metapackage, and to look at the dependencies (which may point to a specific version or variant of the software). Also, packages that are in themetapackages
section are certain to be metapackages; however, not all metapackages are in themetapackages
section. -
m3nda about 9 yearsThe most possible ones would be nginx-core & nginx-common. Thank you.
