Problem with Uninstallation, Getting Database Error on Forum
 

Hello,

I'm facing some problem after server move, blanks pages, new scores problems, So I've uninstalled ibProArcade via product, but after that I'm getting database errors on forum home page, like game tables not fond etc.

Can someone please guide me, how to remove it completely n safely?

I would like to go with a fresh installation.

Thanks.

Hi Pehchaan

I've had a similar problem. Uninstallation (for a re-install) caused my forums homepage (I use CMPS) to give a similar error message. My problem was that I'd installed the 'champs on homepage' add-on. When I uninstalled ibProArcade, that add-on disappeared from view but the code was still in place, causing the error message.

Fixed it by going to FORUMHOME template and removing the install code from there - very carefully. Also check your 'postbit' and 'postbit_legacy' templates for code that wasn't uninstalled.

Darned annoying problem. Kinda think there should be a warning on this Mod along the lines of 'Fairly easy to install but, if things go wrong, BEWARE of uninstalling it.' I suspect the real problem lies in what resides in the database once you've installed it. And that's a serious problem if you don't know much about MySQL and databases - like me.

Hope that helps you.

Good luck

Biggles

thank you Biggles

I've reverted all templates n uninstalled plugins, now errors gone!

:)

Excellent Pehchaan

My pleasure. Delighted I was able to help. :up:

Good luck with the re-install, if that's what you elect to do.

Best wishes

Biggles

Now I've upgraded my forum to 3.7 Beta 3
Do you think the new installation of current ibproArcade will work properly?

Thanks :)
