Thank you Christian, i’ll try again!

But the documentation says:

Signatures	repo:delete($pkg as xs:string) as empty-sequence()
Summary	Deletes a package. The parameter $pkg indicates either the package name as specified in the package descriptor (which I don’t have) or the name, suffixed with a hyphen and the package version (which I also don’t have)

Maybe this documentation could be extended by the information you gave me here?

What do you think?

All the best, Bodo

Hi Bodo,

Right now, versioning is only suppoted by the EXPath packaging mechanism. With BaseX packaging, there will always be a single module instance in your repository.

In line with this, when deleting such modules, there is no need to specify a version number.

Hope this helps,

Christian

Hello everybody,

I’m trying to uninstall a jar which has no version using the repo-module.

The jar is the „BaseX-EMail-module" which I didn’t modify. When it is installed, there is none of the described errors raised:

"not-found: a package does not exist.

descriptor: the package descriptor is invalid.
installed: the module contained in the package to be installed is already installed as part of another package.
parse: an error occurred while parsing the package.
version: the package version is not supported.“

When I check repo:list() it shows this entry:

"<package name="org.basex.modules.email.EMail" version="-" type="Internal“/>“

As you can see, no Version is found. I’ve tried to include a "Version=1.0“ in the MANIFEST.MF, but that didn’t change anything.

How is the Version set if there’s no package-descriptor? Or is that not possible and I have to use a package-descriptor?

Can I delete packages without versions?

Thx a lot
