Re: Re3: uninstall MySQL

Hi Dan,

If you try to uninstall any of the Tenon package again, then I would recommend you to use

/Library/Tenon/System/Scripts/installer.sh

You have to do this in /Library/Receipts like this:

cd /Library/Receipts

sudo /Library/Tenon/System/Scripts/installer.sh --delete MySQL.pkg

For now, if you want to get rid of the extra MySQL icon from the admin screen, edit

/Library/Tenon/AdminServer/bin/Register.pm with a text editor that doesn't add ^M

character to the file.

Remove one of the lines that says:

use MySQL; # 0.1

That should eliminate the extra MySQL icon in the admin server. Hope this helps.

(If you use the above uninstall command, that should remove all of MySQL icon too).

regards,

Eric

Hey guys,

thanks for the feedback. As far as resetting the root password goes, I

probably should have tried to get that sorted out first, but being a user

who was weaned on the mac, I expected the install to simply write over the

old one... chalk that up to my OSX/UNIX learning curve.

Glenn, to answer your questions:

there was no other type of install option - basic was the only one.

I did restart the machine after discovering the dual icon problem.

phpMyAdmin re-installs with the MySQL.pkg that Tenon provides. So, it wasn't

a separate install. But, I did rm -R phpMyAdmin as well so I am mystified as

to why the password protection would have remained intact after a

re-install.

I am going to look for the iTools prefs now, but before i modify them, can

Eric or Sue pipe up and let me know if these files can be safely edited by

hand? Or am I better off trying to reinstall iTools to get rid of the

duplicate MySQL icons?

Cheers,

dan

Thanks for the tip. Deleting the receipt ..pkg worked insofar as I was able

to get through the installer without it telling me that it hit errors. It

performed what it told me was a basic install.

Was there a choice for any other type of install?

However,

Now I have two icons for MySQL in the main iTools screen! Yipes!

Did you do a system restart after the install?

If so, then you might have to look into some iTools prefs. to get it

to drop the second icon.

And the initial problem I sought to solve by re-installing remains... I set

up a root password and it locked me out of the web interface to phpMyAdmin.

Hmmm, root ps wd where ( OSX, MySQL, phpMyAdmin )? Was it also a

re-install of phpMyAdmin?

Also, did you run the "Repair Permissions" utility after your

installs? Not sure how it matters after some installs, but it can't hurt.

HTH.
