Do you have an advice on how to uninstall SNAP on Ubuntu?
There should be an uninstall
script in the bin
folder of the installation. You need to execute this.
You probably did not install SNAP with apt-get, so you obviously cannot remove is using apt-get.
Your original problem is most likely due to the fact that you ran the installer as sudo, but then start snap as a normal user. The installation made /home/max/.snap as a folder that is owned by root, however, so you cannot write to it.
Try chown -R max .snap and start again. Should work.
thanks a lot … that seems to have solved the issue … but it seems I had no other way of installing SNAP?
You should also be able to run the installer as a normal user. You cannot install it in a system folder (/opt, /usr/local) in that case, but in e.g. /home/max/snap. If you are the only user on the ubuntu system, that should not be a problem.
Thanks a lot marpet
I want execute uninstall script but it does not work
What kind of error do you get?
When opening SNAP in Ubuntu, I get the following error message
I erased all SNAP folders and re-install in /home/hout/snap
But I still have the same problem
It seems that you don’t have write permission in the directory /home/hout/.snap/system
.
I assume that this is an issue of your system not of SNAP.
Maybe you can relaxe the restrictions on this directory .
I think because I do not have the directory
.snap/system.
This directory is normally created by SNAP.
In which folder I have to install SNAP
It is up to you.
You can use e.g. /opt
or $HOME/Apps
thanks a lot marpet
I solved the problem
Sorry. Is there a way to install SNAP 5.0 using apt-get? The only installer I found is esa-snap_sentinel_unix_5_0.sh. Thank you
No, you can’t use apt-get. The installer files provided on the download page are the ones you should use.
Ok. Thank you very much
