Hi there

I deleted the 6.1 version, uploaded the 6.2 version then ran update.php, but didnt realise I didnt have the correct privs on the databsae to drop the tables as required, so the update failed. I then did this manually, then tried again to update but the module does not load fully (the tables are not created, even tho ive had my perms updated).

What else do I need to delete, apart from the 3 main tables so that I can attempt a fresh install?

  • Disable the modules
  • Uninstall the modules (the Tab on the modules list page named Uninstall)
  • Enable the modules

Since you uninstalled the modules there should be no reason to execute update.php. It will be as if you are installing the first time.

Huh? The 6.x-2.x should have upgraded the data for you by running update.php. Did the updates try to delete tables but the Drupal database user didn't have the proper permissions? I'm not exactly clear on what happened here.

Hi there

Just got round to trying to reinstall the module and getting more details to reply.

Had a successful reinstall.

It was purely a permissions problem - yes the drupal database user did not have the correct ones - I rechecked required perms and talked to the server guys. It was the first time I'd updated a module on the live site so that's why I'd not encountered this kind of problem before.

Thanks for your time everyone.
