UnInstall problem 
Modified By jazzylily  on 12/3/2007 4:33:45 AM)

I have had so many problems with this module (probably due to me lack of knowledge of DNN) that i decided to uninstall it.

I tried to uninstall a module but before it had completed I got this error

Configuration Error

Description: An error occurred during the processing of a configuration file required to service this request. Please review the specific error details below and modify your configuration file appropriately.

Parser Error Message: An error occurred loading a configuration file: Directory 'C:\inetpub\wwwroot\dotnetnuke\DesktopModules\AliCommerce\Config' does not exist. Failed to start monitoring file changes.

Source Error:

[No relevant source lines]

Source File: C:\inetpub\wwwroot\absolutewoman\web.config    Line: 0

 

Please can someone help me get round this so i can get my site working again.

Re: UnInstall problem 

Uninstall instructions are in Readme.doc file.  I put it here for you:

  1. Uninstall 5 modules from Host tab. Please DO NOT select Delete Files checkbox.
  2. Delete all AliCommerce related tables which start with AS_C_. Just select all AliCommerce tables, right click your mouse, select Delete menu and Delete Objects window will display. On this window, Keep clicking OK button (at least 5 times) until all selected tables are deleted.
  3. Update web.config file. Install process updated web.config file. To restore it, find Config\reference.config in module install directory. The content in the file is what needs to be removed from web.config.
  4. Delete module install directory.

Let us know if you need more help.

Re: UnInstall problem 

Ya, this is NOT good practice.  How in the hell do we fix this if we have already selected Delete files?

Re: UnInstall problem 

Yes, I agree. Unforunately, there is no core API we can use during uninstall  process, so we can't  remove changes made to web.config during install process. This will change when DNN 5.0 is released. Until then, we have to live with the current procedure.
