hi,

today, I uninstalled Plesk totally, or I tried to do that but it does not seem to work. the apache is already running although psa & co. are uninstalled...

(apt-get --purge remove ...)

the apache is running with an other user than the root. the username is www-data. I cannot stop the service with the root user. I cannot uninstall the apache (apache2) with it. But I do not know the passwird for the www-data user.

How can I find out the password or is it maybe possible to change it?


Kind regards
Tim Lange
