Question
Mistekenly Installed Kunena second time: broke my forums
I just installed Kunena on my joomla site, but unfortunately I already have Kunena installed. I thought I was installing "Kunena Latest module". The download page for the module displays a download link for Kunena 1.6, and I clicked on that thinking it was the module.
But now my forum is broken. Is there an easy way to fix this, or do I have to start all over again?
In the installation window I received a message: JFolder: :delete: Path is not a folder. Path: /home1/mindstre/public_html/wisdomangermanagement/administrator/components/com_kunena/archive
Then when I tried to access my forums there is a message: The Forum is currently offline for maintenance
Check back soon!
The forum menu item no longer appears. And when I try access the forum back end, there is a Kunena installation page.
When I went to the Kunena component in my Joomla backend, I was taken to an install page. I was able to fix the problem simply by choosing to 'reinstall' the forums from the control panels.
