How to delete entire folders with manifest.php

Nagy Zoltan over 2 years ago

Hello. Our old theming messes up the new version 12 interface. I have to delete entire folders and their contents, not just files. How do I do this with an upgrade package. The official documentation only teaches you to delete files, not folders.

https://support.sugarcrm.com/Documentation/Sugar_Developer/Sugar_Developer_Guide_12.0/Cookbook/Module_Loadable_Packages/Removing_Files_with_an_Installable_Package/index.html

Again, I need to delete a lot more, not just 1-2 specific files.

Tough luck because we are not in cloud. This is a on prem system, hosted by ourselves

Hello Nagy,

Unfortunately it is not possible to do that through the module loader, you have to fill a case to the support team to perform that.

Hope that helps :-)

Have a nice week-end !

Okay, so no problem at all if you have access to the file system.

You can also do the trick if your instance is gitted ?

If you installed via Module Loader, uninstall the module. It will uninstall your package.

Of course, in your manifest you individually named each of your files and didn’t say to copy a bunch of files to a folder!
