Ok, here's the simple version of my issue. I developed a Module and tried to add it to a page. When the module did not appear on the page I followed the instructions posted by Will Strohl for removing the module: http://www.willstrohl.com/Blog/EntryI....  However, after going through these steps I still have the module displaying in the Extensions under the host which I cannot delete without getting this error:

Error: is currently unavailable. DotNetNuke.Services.Exceptions.ModuleLoadException: 'EndElement' is an invalid XmlNodeType. Line 11, position 7. ---> System.Xml.XmlException: 'EndElement' is an invalid XmlNodeType. Line 11, position 7. at System.Xml.XmlReader.ReadStartElement(String name) at DotNetNuke.Entities.Modules.Definitions.ModuleDefinitionInfo.ReadModuleControls(XmlReader reader) at DotNetNuke.Entities.Modules.Definitions.ModuleDefinitionInfo.ReadXml(XmlReader reader) at DotNetNuke.Entities.Modules.DesktopModuleInfo.ReadModuleDefinitions(XmlReader reader) at DotNetNuke.Entities.Modules.DesktopModuleInfo.ReadXml(XmlReader reader) at DotNetNuke.Common.Utilities.CBO.DeserializeObject[TObject](XmlReader reader) at DotNetNuke.Common.Utilities.CBO.DeserializeObject[TObject](TextReader reader) at DotNetNuke.Services.Installer.Installers.ModuleInstaller.ReadManifest(XPathNavigator manifestNav) at DotNetNuke.Services.Installer.Installers.InstallerFactory.GetInstaller(XPathNavigator manifestNav, PackageInfo package) at DotNetNuke.Services.Installer.Installers.PackageInstaller.ReadComponents(XPathNavigator manifestNav) at DotNetNuke.Services.Installer.Installers.PackageInstaller..ctor(PackageInfo package) at DotNetNuke.Services.Installer.Installer..ctor(PackageInfo package, String physicalSitePath) at DotNetNuke.Modules.Admin.Extensions.UnInstall.UnInstallPackage() at DotNetNuke.Modules.Admin.Extensions.UnInstall.cmdUninstall_Click(Object sender, EventArgs e) --- End of inner exception stack trace ---


I was hoping to determine what Stored Procedure populates the extensions list so I can determine how to remove this reference.  The Dropdown list under modules does not display this module so I am basically trying to remove the module so I can attempt adding another version of my developed code. 

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Jeff

That blog post is over 2 years old, and DNN has had a large number of changes since then - including many architectural changes.  That blog post is really only good for the 4.x series of releases.  

Do you see this error on page load?

Will,

Thanks for your prompt response!  No the error I posted displays when I click the Uninstall Extension (red X) next to the module and then click Uninstall Package under the Host >> Extensions area.  I have gone through the tables I would have thought would contain the ModuleName and not found where this could be listed from.  I am currently on version 6.0.2 in the environment I am working in.

Any assistance you cna provide is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Jeff

I am not sure how comfortable you are with digging through the innards of DNN, that's how I originally wrote that blog post.  I ran into the same thing you are right now, and I had to step through the DesktopModules, Modules, TabModules, and other related tables to see where the orphaned module information was being kept.

The best place to start is to begin looking at the DeleteModule* stored procedures, checking all of the tables that it is referencing.  You are basically reverse-engineering the uninstall process to find the orphaned data.  This is what I had done in the past, and this is the way where you're going to find out exactly where the orphaned information is to delete.

When you're doing this, just be sure to not delete data without getting the big picture.  Map out where you module begins and ends - then begin planning the delete commands to get rid of it.

Will,

Thanks again for your propmt response!  The DeleteModule Stored Procedure just hits the Modules table, in which I am unable to find the orphaned reference.  I have also skimmed all the other Module and DesktopModule related tables looking for where the FriendlyName could be being displayed from without any success.

For that reason I thought looking at the Stored Procedure that populates the extensions screen would provide me more insight into where the orphaned record is coming from since the FriendlyName of the orphaned record is being displayed on that screen (I am also unable to add another module with the name I have chosen).  Any idea which Stored Procedure populates the Extensions screen?  I think that might be the best bet in my situation for resolving this issue.

Unfortunately, I also tried doing an integrity Check under the tools which also did not resolve this issue.

Thanks,

Jeff
