Hi Rogs -

Finaly got through and have managed to install most but messed up on the prowlarr setitngs when it gave me an IPV6 / dns error. I would now like to uninstall everything and start again - can you please advise how I can completely uninstall yams?

Thank you!

Hey @Faisbook!

Yoi don't need to uninstall. Just delete the prowlarr configuration and start again.

  • Stop YAMS
  • Delete the prowlarr configuration directory located in /your/install/location/config/prowlarr
  • Restart YAMS

Your prowlarr should be back to zero, and you can try again.

Cheers!

Roger.

That's great but when I had issues last time I ran install again and it seems like it tries to load up every service twice now - can you advise where I can go to finx this?

Please, read the docs. Every question you are asking is explained in the docs.

https://yams.media/install/using-the-cli/

You reinstalled YAMS without deleting the old configuration, so now it's running twice.

Before installing YAMS, please make sure you have read the entire documentation.

I did read what I could and used the 'detroy' command but didn't know how to actually get rid of the whole container so I could start again

Thanks - already did this. When I do a fresh install it seems to have YAMS running numerous times. Where can I find the config files?

Like I said in a previous message, /your/install/location/config. You can also manually force delete all your docker containers.
