    Duplicate packages

    I've accidently installed a package twice. This has cause the uninstall not to work. I was thinking if i went into the db and rename one of the packages i could then remove it but cant find this field in the db. Any suggestions to resolve this?

    I did this a while back by accident and from what I remember, all I had to do was delete the duplicate entries from the web.config and everything was working again.. it'll probably be dependent on the package though?

    hmm, i can't see any reference in my web.config. Are the names stored in the db.

    Not sure - I guess it depends on the package. Which one was it out of interest?

    Just had a look in the package file and it seems you may need to check your bin folder for a duplicate 'uComponents.Core.dll'.

    Data about the installed packages is stored in an XML config file, which can be found here:

    \App_Data\packages\installed\installedPackages.config

    You can edit the XML to manually remove the duplicate entries.

    Are you getting any errors when you try to install? (Since I wrote the installer/uninstaller for uComponents - would like to know if there is a bug here).

    Cheers, Lee.

    thanks lee.  I remove the package from 

    \App_Data\packages\installed\installedPackages.config

    leaving just ucomponent installed. This remaining one didn't work. So i unstalled it and reinstalled and works well. So i think install/uninstall is working well. Maybe a lookup for duplicates might be a handy feature. 

    thanks again.
