in order to get my players to work with the views modules as documented in another request, i'm trying to uninstall the 5-0.3 module and install 5-0.2

my first steps were to delete the files out of the /modules/audio directory, then using phpmyadmin and i got rid of the three audio tables. i dont know how to run queries to find any other info in phpmyadmin so i'm sure there are traces left behind.

then to install 5-0.2 i dropped the files into the directory on ftp and they were enabled ok in the drupal admin interface. but when you try to access an audio file in the system i get a host of mysql errors.

i go into phpmyadmin again and find that the three modules did not get reinstalled properly. although there are tidbits of info on this subject around the drupal.org site, i still find it a little confusing to figure out.

ok, this is the page where i originally found out about the three tables to delete. after revisiting i was able to execute the
DELETE FROM system WHERE name = 'audio';
which got rid of one line it said.

now, when i put the files back in the ftp folder, go to my administer page, the enable box for audio is greyed out and unclickable.

ok, this was very simple to fix. basically i just had to disable the other audio modules, and then the main audio module was able to activate. now i can uninstall versions very quickly... sweet!
