    Hi there,

    unfortunately I got an error message where my navigation should have been. I went on deleting the snippet, because I wasn’t able to uninstall wayfinder via package management. I keep getting this error:

    Error uninstalling package with signature: [[+signature]]

    and

    Console running...
    Finding package with signature: wayfinder-2.1.1-rc1
    Could not open file for reading: wayfinder-2.1.1-rc1.transport.zip
    MODx could not download the file. You must enable allow_url_fopen, cURL or fsockopen to use remote transport packaging.

    What do I need to do, to be able to uninstall all my plug-ins and snippets, and then re-install them using the package management tool?

      Okay,

      I was able to remove the package management entry from the database, and reinstalled wayfinder. Seems to work smoothly.

        I’ve had similar things happen. I think it comes from changes in the Package Manager and package building code. A new version of PM will sometimes have trouble uninstalling a package that was built with a previous version of PM.
