Package Manager: "Your session timed out while posting."

Yes, I believe that would leave a security hole.

It would be interesting to know what the 404 was. It would be interesting to see your .htaccess both before and after the uninstall. In many or most cases your .htaccess file can be deleted or renamed to deactivate it.

Also, that mod has a manual uninstall for the .htaccess, see the readme.txt file.

If you want help manually uninstalling that mod, post in the mod support thread.

Finally, any mod install or uninstall can go bad. Doing either is never a 100% sure thing. "Stuff" happens. The process is sort of like doing brain surgery on yourself. Good luck!

After checking the .htaccess from an old backup, and checking the current one, I have found that they are showing the same thing.


--- Code: ---ErrorDocument 404 /404err.php

--- End code ---

After looking through the installation XML file, I have ensured that all correct code is back in place, and the edit to the index.php file is removed.

The odd thing is, it's only effecting my package manager, I can't produce this error on any other page/action. Otherwise, I would have to guess it would be a php.ini configuration problem. :-\

Edit: This is the error in the log:

--- Quote ---*.*.*.*     A session had already been started - ignoring session_start()
?action=error;code=404    September 08, 2008, 07:09:20 pm
--- End quote ---

Actually you pointed out a shortcoming in my mod. It can't take into account if you had existing error pages in your .htaccess. That's probably why you had your problem. I'll include a warning message in my next release. There is no way a dumb script could take account of all possible existing .htaccess variations. They are infinite.
