Contacted support and they can't help

I posted in the thread of that damn add-on and the developer seems to be dead

I need to get rid of this ASAP!!

-----------------------------------------------------------

I upgraded to vB4 so vMail caused the user registration page to be misaligned

I contacted suport and they advised me to uninstall vMail is it is not compatible with vB4

So when I tried to uninstall it I got this message:

Remove Table : nlp_vmail

I searched in the templates for it and I found 4 entires but I don't know how to remove it

please guide meh

thanks

I'd guess that it's talking about a database table. If the error message is that the table doesn't exist, then you could try creating a database table (using phpMyAdmin for example) and then run uninstall again.

Table : nlp_vmail in a data base table, remove it via cpanel, phpmyadmin.
I am sure someone will post how to run a query to remove it.

crap! never had to do such thing installing a simple plugin! I will never install any mods anymore! now I have to reinvent the wheel to remove a line of code!

DROP TABLE IF EXISTS `nlp_vmail`;

Pay attention to the first post of any Mod.... If it says "DB Changes" you know it's likely to add tables to your DB.

Don't avoid Mods, just choose them more carefully.

I upgraded to vB4

^^ Might should have thought about this a tad more.

Matrix Leader didn't say if the problem has been solved, but looking at the uninstall code for that mod, the "Remove Table : nlp_vmail" is a message displayed to say what's being done, not instructions asking you to remove the table yourself. But db errors are turned off, so it seems like if the table didn't exist (like I was thinking), then it shouldn't be a problem.

Maybe the only problem was that the message was confusing?

I do not think this is a big deal to fix at all. What happened after you ran DROP TABLE IF EXISTS `nlp_vmail`; ??

When you upgrade versions like that you really need to remove plug ins that are not compatible.

If you decide to keep Vb4 let me know this week and I will help you fix the error, no charge.

Strange, when I uninstalled it while I am on my vB3 forum, it didn't give me that error

but anyway, I'm glad its gone! I don't need to plugins that modify my database in such a way
