installed.list

Hello there,

once I install some Mod, /Packages/installed.list is updated with some magic number. Then I deleted this file (just mistake) and restore it back from backup. But now all my INSTALLED mods in Installed Packages allows only [Apply Mod] instead of [Uninstall]. Where should I fix it to tell to SMF the list of really installed mods ?

Thanks.

If you don't have a copy of the installed.list then don't worry about it.

You won't however be able to automatically uninstall any mods which you already have installed, you would have to uninstall them manually if you ever had to do that.

arm:
Thank you for quick answer,

I viewed all steps of installation and storing packages, so for those who deleted this file and want to restore ability to automaticaly uninstall mods in the future should do next:
- create /Packages/installed.list file and put 1223137846 there
- open phpMyAdmin, go into SMF database and run this query:
    update smf_log_packages set install_state = 1
Note that ALL installed mods will be marked as installed!

That`s all. For to admin CP and check it.

karlbenson:
Wow. Thanks for posting the information that you have uncovered.

We appreciate it. Unfortunately not too many users who discovered the solution themselves return to post the information for others.

As for your last comment, since its a bug. I have split it off from this topic,
http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=266035.0
and moved it to bug reports, where our team will look at, and if necessary add it to our bug tracker, which hopefully then if necessary will get fixed.

arm:
Thanks!

P.S. I think it`s no so hard to return back to this forum and share what you found with the community!
