How to uninstall a module with the API?

[totoff]

Hi Forum,

something went totally wrong with my settings for the Multisite module as described here. I can't access my site anymore and need to uninstall and start from scratch.

Is there a way to uninstall a module via the API (I tried to google the forums but the search terms are to generic to find results)?

Thanks

You could always also remove it via phpMyAdmin. Go to the modules table, find the module class (e.g. ProcessBlog) and delete that row...Backup before of course...

$modules->uninstall("ModuleClassName");

thank you both. This is all very weird. I managed to uninstall with $modules->uninstall but when I try to reinstall I get errors:

Warning: strpos(): Empty needle in /www/htdocs/user/mysubdomain.com/site/modules/Multisite.module on line 40

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /www/htdocs/user/mydomain.com/site/modules/Multisite.module:40) in /www/htdocs/user/mysubdomain.com/wire/core/admin.php on line 14

Notice: Undefined index: subdomains in /www/htdocs/user/mysubdomain.com/site/modules/Multisite.module on line 87

Appreciate if you have any ideas. If not, I'll wait for answers in the appropriate modules forum.

I know nothing about the multisite module, but that first error suggests that the subdomains field in the module's config settings hasn't been filled out.
