Brandon D Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 I've requested this a blue moon ago, but it'd be extremely nice to have a "force uninstall" option for applications. All this does is simply run the current uninstall procedure but suppress any database errors and continues. Right now, if a field or table is missing due to a bad install, upgrade in IPB, change by admin, etc. then IPB's uninstaller will barf when the uninstaller attempts to drop it, causing an incomplete uninstall and most likely a lot more driver errors than before the uninstall. So long as IPB has an app key then the uninstall should run without errors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(e) Eric Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Someone trying to install/uninstall ibEconomy is running into this problem, have any workarounds been implemented or mentioned that we can use to force uninstall? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyF Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 I've had this, what I did was to visit the DB checker and let it 'repair' it, then run the un-installer again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
