Uninstalling Burp Suite Enterprise

DC | Last updated: May 17, 2019 08:20PM UTC

I can't seem to find an uninstall script within the installation files for Burp Suite Enterprise. I accidentally chose to install only the web server when I actually wanted to install the web server and agents. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

I should also add that I've installed it on Ubuntu

If you run the installer again you should be prompted to install agents. Please let us know if you need any further assistance.

Yes, I tried running the installer in the same directory and it noticed that there was an installation already. When i asked it to overwrite it, it just said: ======================= Uninstalling previous version Extracting files ... Initializing database ... Starting Enterprise Server service ... Starting Web Server service ... Waiting for Enterprise Server to start ... Setup has finished installing Burp Suite Enterprise Edition on your computer. Finishing installation ... ====================== It never prompted me again

You'll need to specify a different directory for the agent. Let us know if you still have issues.

I tried specifying a different directory and that started asking me the right questions (enterprise or enterprise + agents, etc.) but when it came time to choose the same ports, it said they were already in use. I tried using different ports but then i couldn't access the admin console through the web server. Is there no uninstall script included in the installation package at all? Thank you!

OK, thanks for the feedback. The uninstaller should be in the installation directory and should be called "uninstall". Apologies, I was hoping you'd be able to just add the agents as this would have been the quickest option for you.
