    Problems installing uForum

    Hi!

    I want to have a Forum in my new site... so after reading about it, I decided to use uForum.

    My first problem was installing the package. When it says a database was gonna be installed, I got an error. So I tried it again... Now it's OK. But... when I have a look at Installed packages I realized that I have two uForum packages installed :( ... That is my first problem.

    My second problem: ¿Where is that database installed? In my UmbracoCMS DB I can see three new tables (I suppose): forumComments, forumForum, forumTopics... is that correct or I need more tables.

    Third problem: Can't get Forum run in my site nor in RunAway! It is empty :(

    Forth problem: OK... if things go wrong, just uninstall the package... read more in the forum... and start again.... but... I can't uninstall uForum at all. I get an exception and still have some doctypes and files.

    Here are the exception and the doctypes and files... ¿Anyone could help me?

     

    Thanks!

    Hi Sauritas

    A couple of questions:

    Which version of uForum did you install?
    Which version of Umbraco are you using?

    The three DB tables you mention are correct. Those are the only tables needed.

    To remove the uForum package manually, just delete the tables in your database, removed the uForum dll, and delete the documenttypes/templates/macros that were created.

    I think umbraco stores information about installed packages in this file: \App_Data\packages\installed\installedPackages.config

    So you could try and edit that to tell umbraco that uForum is no longer installed.

    I would like to know what errors you got when running the database installer. Then I can see if I can fix it.

    Hi Morten,

     

    I installed uForum v0.0.7, I think it's the last one. And I'm using Umbraco v 4.0.3. I know it isn't the last one (I think Umbraco v5 is comming soon ???), but I am newbie in umbraco and that was the version I installed when I started to learn Umbraco.

     

    I don't remember which  the error was when running the database installer, but the second time it tried it was ok and I have thos three tables mentioned above.

    Forum is one of the most important thing in my site, so I'd like pretty much to get it running... Any ideas of why I can't see anything in forum (topics, etc).

     

    Thanks!!

    Have you created and published the forum nodes?

    In order to post topics, you have to be signed as a member. Have you created login controls for your site?

    Hi Morten,

     

    Ok!!! I think I have to do things step by step... First: Make run my Login Controls and then Run uForum. I thought I would see something just installing it. So... maybe in a couple of days I'll write new about this!!

     

    Thanks!!!
