Hi,

I disabled the module and now if I click on Home, or go to the root of my Drupal installation, I get "Page not found
The requested page could not be found."

Users coming to my site now get this message. This is a huge problem for us since they cannot login, or do anything else - there is no content, no menus, etc.

Please help asap....

Also, I tried to uninstall the module after disabling it, to hopefully fix the problem, and found there is no uninstall for this module?????

Ok, my bad.

I resolved it by:

Go to Admin > Site Config > Site information and at the bottom of the page you will see:

Default front page: *
The home page displays content from this relative URL. If unsure, specify "node".

I just got the same problem. I solved in the same way.

The reason I found is that: when you disable the module it leaves all of its variables set in the table (prefix)_variable.
In fact it does not have a .install file so it does not implement hook_uninstall() at all.

To cleanup, I deleted all the record with 'name' LIKE 'front_%' from table (prefix)_variable (taking care of possible conflicts - the exact list is in front/front_page.module)

just a quick note to let you know that the next version of the module will include an uninstall that removes the default front page setting and replaces it with the default "node".

For other using existing versions, please remember to go to ADMIN -> SITE CONFIGURATION -> Site Information and set the default front page as node when uninstalling the front page.module.
