All the files you need to uninstall are in the /vault/install directory. If you deleted this directory, you will need to download the package again.

After uploading the vault/install/ directory, I still get the samee error.

Code:

Warning: require_once([path]/vault/install/special_install.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in [path]/admincp/plugin.php(1514) : eval()'d code on line 3

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required '/*******/**********/public_html/forums/vault/install/special_install.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home2/liteover/public_html/forums/admincp/plugin.php(1514) : eval()'d code on line 3

Oh, I thought it was something else. This occurs for users who installed prior to 2.3.0 and have upgraded to 2.3.0 before uninstalling.

Run the following SQL query:

Code:

UPDATE productcode SET version = '1.0.0', installcode = '', uninstallcode = 'define(\\'CES_UNINSTALL\\', 1);\n\nrequire_once(DIR . \\'/vault/install/uninstall.php\\');' WHERE productid = 'ces_nwsp_spec' AND version = '*'

Then you should be able to uninstall.

That didn't seem to help, I get the same error after running the query.

BTW, I am thinking about starting over with a clean Vbulletin install and then reinstalling the Wiki. I was thinking about doing this when vB 4.0 comes out.

Try this method: go to Plugins & Products > Product Manager. Next to CES VaultWiki, select Edit, and click Go.

Scroll to where it says "Existing Install/Uninstall Code".

For version, make sure it says "1.0.0". For uninstall code, replace the field with the following:

Code:

define('CES_UNINSTALL', 1); require_once(DIR . '/vault/install/uninstall.php');

Click the Save button at the bottom of the page.

You should now be able to uninstall it.
