My gitlab-runner service is not running no matter what I do. I used to have same problem before and when I used to update, and it used to start running but now it’s not starting at all.

I have uninstalled and then again installed it’s still the same. I guess I am not uninstalling/removing completely. How to uninstall gitlab runner completely or how to start service?

I also don’t get home dir of gitlab-runner. when I say gitlab-runner list I get following config details.

ConfigFile=/home/rohith/.gitlab-runner/config.toml

but I try cd to gitlab-runner user dir I don’t find the dir at all.
