Program clogging up my RAM- but when I stop it via 'sudo service X stop' it says its not loaded












1















Specifically I'm trying to uninstall mongodb because this is what I get after booting up, when I press htop.



Because this is what I get after booting up, when I press htop



I don't want or need mongodb anymore, I want to remove it. So I followed the instructions here.



I ran



sudo service mongod stop


and got Failed to stop mongod.service: Unit mongod.service not loaded.



I then ploughed on and did



sudo apt-get purge mongodb-org*


And got:



E: Unable to locate package mongodb-org*
E: Couldn't find any package by glob 'mongodb-org*'
E: Couldn't find any package by regex 'mongodb-org*'


What should I do?



EDIT: As per a question I tried sudo apt list --installed *mongo* and the output is:

  • This may be an issue I stumbled across a while ago. You could try installing mongodb, use the newly installed mongodb to stop the service, then uninstall it?

As per the updated question there are no packages matching mongodb-org*. Uninstalling mongodb will probably be achieved by issuing



sudo apt purge mongodb*


Uninstalling mongo-tools



sudo apt purge mongo-tools
