Dear All, When I give the command ¨sudo ovsdb-tool create /usr/local/etc/openvswitch/conf.db vswitchd/vswitch.ovsschema¨ during the installation, I am getting the following error.
ovsdb-tool: I/O error: /usr/local/etc/openvswitch/conf.db: create failed (File exists) I tried uninstalling ovs using the command sudo make uninstall and also tried sudo rm -rf delete options in the usr/local/var/log/ directory and still getting the above error.
