No longer able to install modules


Recommended Posts

I receive this error:

 

"This module is already installed: module name"

 

Trying to correct an Authorize.net problem. This module stopped working. I reinstalled the module using both FTP (uncompressed) and .zip files, nothing. The status in the back office remains stuck as "install".

 

Any suggestions?

 

Thx.

I wouldn't necessarily mark this thread as "solved", but for those that have the same problem, this is what I did (approximately):

 

 - I made sure to go to Advance Settings -> Performance -> and turn off force compile and cache. There are multiple settings on the performance page, turn them ALL off.

 

 - Completely install, then RESET the problem module. Then, uninstall and DELETE the module. (Follow these steps in this order.)

 

 - Then install the module of your choice.

 

My problem went away after a couple of hours of playing with the back end in this manner. I hope this helps someone else, as there are a quite a few threads with my exact same question - but no real answer.
