Article summary

If you need to uninstall the GRIN Magento Module for any reason, you can follow the steps below. Uninstalling the module will cause Magento functionality in GRIN to fail, so we typically recommend you do not uninstall the module unless absolutely necessary.

Note
We highly recommend your Magento Admin completes the module setup. If you need further assistance, reach out to GRIN’s Support team.

What You'll Need

  • The GRIN Magento Module already installed. You can learn how to install the module with our help article Installing the GRIN Magento Module.
  • Composer v1, which you can download directly from Composer. If your server is running Composer 2.X, you can download Composer v1 to the working directory, then explicitly use the v1 executable with any composer command by specifying ./composer.phar for any composer related commands, as shown below.
curl -O "https://getcomposer.org/download/1.10.22/composer.phar" 

// Downloads v1 version of Composer

chmod a+x composer.phar

// Sets the file as executable

How to Do It

  1. Open Composer v1.
  2. Enter the following commands:
bin/magento module:disable Grin_Module

bin/magento module:uninstall Grin_Module

// Answer: y

bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy

bin/magento cache:flush

// Optional if you see any processes related to the GRIN Module still listed
ps -aux

ps -aux | grep grin_module_webhook

Kill <pid>

Your GRIN Magento Module should now be uninstalled.
