I've installed the version 1.11 directly after 1.9 and now Drupal keeps nagging about a database update which needs to be done, but which always fails.

I tried to uninstall the module, and then to reinstall, but it seems that some values remain somewhere in the database.

I also deleted all the variables social_share_xxx in the variabales table, but it seems that there are still some more?

Can you list all the known places where the module stores data in the database so that i can manually delete them to perform a clean install and get over this database nag?

Thanks.

all of the variables start with social_share_

The only other place I can think of that you'd possibly have to remove anything would be from the system table.

However, it sounds like there's a bigger issue here if the database update isn't working.

This patch fixes the update issue. Problem was that the update functions were not returning arrays as expected by D6.

I've issued a new release 6.x-1.12 that includes this fix.

Great, thanks for the quick follow-up! Chapeau, your update applied nicely with drush. Haha what a silly need to fix :)

Just, a small feature suggestion, wouldn't it be nice to be able to remove remaining database variables through a uninstall-module routine?

Anyway now Im not more bothered by my pending database update, thanks again :)
