Try these steps to uninstall:

1. Make sure zenoss is stopped
> zenoss stop
2. Remove contents of the zenhome directory
> rm -rf $ZENHOME/*
3. Remove the directory you unzipped/untarred from the tarball.
4. In mysql drop the events database
mysql> drop database events;

Before you do all that you might want to take a look at zenbuild.log. If the events db didn't get created you might have a problem with the mysql username/password you specified during the install. To test you can try building the events db from the command line. Use the same mysql username/password that you specify during the zenoss install:

> mysqladmin -u<username> -p<password> create events
> mysql -u<username> -p<password> events < $ZENHOME/Products/ ZenEvents/db/zenevents.sql
