Unable to install Joomla

[jchilton]

Hello,

I installed Joomla 1.5 and found out that a module that I was installing would not work with that version of Joomla. So, I uninstalled Joomla 1.5 and tried to install Joomla 1.0 and now I get an error stating that only one script can be installed. How can I resolve this issue?

I tried to delete everything and start over but that did not work. I ever restored the site from backup before installing Joomla 1.5 but that did not work either.

Thanks for the help.

Hello, did you delete the database?

If not, open up cpanel and use the database wizard or database tools to delete the database then try re-install.

Hello,

I have in fact deleted the database while troublshooting why I could not reinstall Joomla. I found out that when Joomla was installed the first time there was a script installed into the .fantasticodata folder. In order to reinstall Joomla I needed to delete the file "installed_in_root.php". Once I did that I was able to reinstall Joomla.
