Dear DotNetNuke Pros --

Please help.

How can I get rid of the following error on DotNetNuke 8.0.3 here, as I have absolutely no use for DigArticle right now and would rather just have it 100% removed....

2017-11-07 06:51:44,223 [VWSCIIS01][Thread:6][ERROR] DotNetNuke.Services.Exceptions.Exceptions - System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'DigNuke.DNN.Modules.DigArticle' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

Please advise.

Yes, I have tried uninstalling the Module, but I cannot find it anywhere. Perhaps there is a location for it that I missed.

Here the details.

It seems to me that "DigArticle" (or anything like it) does not appear in any of the following locations...

> Host, > Extensions

> Host, > Dashboard, > Modules

> Admin, > Extension, > Modules

...and the Recycle Bin is 100% empty...

FYI, this is where the error is showing up, every minute or so...

> Admin, > LogViewer, > Website=All, > Type=All

...and the error detail is...

...BUT...

...I did find these folders on the physical file system...

C:\inetpub\wwwroot\dotnetnuke\DesktopModules\DigArticle\

C:\inetpub\wwwroot\dotnetnuke\DesktopModules\DigArticleDashboard\

C:\inetpub\wwwroot\dotnetnuke\DesktopModules\DigArticleListArticle\

C:\inetpub\wwwroot\dotnetnuke\DesktopModules\DigArticleViewArticle\

...so I think my questions are...


Question 1:

What is the quickest and easiest way to get rid of this error?

Question 2:

It seems like "Scheduler" is trying to do something related to "DigArticle", so how can I tell "Scheduler" to NOT do that? How can I delete the "Scheduler" task or something similar?

Question 3:

Can I just delete the physical file folders "C:\inetpub\wwwroot\dotnetnuke\DesktopModules\DigArticle*\" to fix this?

Please advise.

Thanks.

I really appreciate your help.

>>> Mark, I'm not sure your background and experience with DNN so forgive me if some of the questions are basic in nature. Just hoping to understand in order to best assist.

FYI, I am C# DotNet developer by trade, for 10+ years, and used DotNetNuke about 5 years ago a little bit, but for the last 5+ months I have been making C# ASCX-based custom Modules for DotNetNuke 8.0.3 (cannot upgrade yet) and those Modules are working great. I inherited this site, so I have been tuning and cleaning the config and overall setup as I go. I know a lot about standard ASP.NET sites and their configuration and administration, and have built many from the ground-up, but I am only a newbie at the DotNetNuke-specific config and admin.

>>> You're able to see the Event logs so you at least have Admin access to the site. Do you know if you have host/super-user access to the site?

Yes, I have a SuperUser, all-access, no-holds-barred, you-break-it-you-buy-it, account.

>>> In order to uninstall the module you would login as host and hover over the host menu item then go to Extensions. From there you can uninstall.

I went there and there is NO listing for anything with the token "digarticle" in it. I put a list below of all the Modules that show up there.

>>> Also, just to state the obvious here - if you uninstall the module then you will delete all data associated with the module. That is, if you have news items using this module they will be gone as in deleted from the database and you won't be able to recover them. I would suggest backing up your site before uninstalling just to be on the safe side.

Yes, I run a daily backup of the site and database and etc, and on-demand backups are run as desired.
