Uninstallation

Before the uninstallation, check whether any Vision SDK service is running. User data and configuration are retained after the uninstallation. Uninstalling the SDK is a high-risk operation. Ensure that no service is using the SDK before uninstalling it.
When Vision SDK is uninstalled, the related operator files are also deleted. The installation directory of these operator files is ${ASCEND_OPP_PATH}/vendors/customize_vision, where ${ASCEND_OPP_PATH} stores CANN environment variables during Vision SDK installation. If there are multiple Vision SDKs existing in the environment, operators may fail to be found after it is uninstalled. In this case, you need to reinstall Vision SDK.

Script Uninstallation Procedure

Go to the Vision SDK installation path and check whether you have the execute permission on the uninstall.sh script in the bin directory.

cd mxVision/bin ls -l uninstall.sh
If you do not have the execute permission on the script, run the following command to grant the execute permission on the uninstall.sh script:

chmod u+x uninstall.sh
Run either of the following commands to start the uninstallation:
1
./uninstall.sh
The uninstall.sh script can be used only for normal installation. To rectify installation exceptions, follow Software Package Uninstallation Procedure.
