[QUOTE="Bernard, post: 1010681, member: 120430"] Hi guys, just to add to this "old" thread. I also wanted to uninstall the TV Server only part. I also got an error, but since porky996t did not specify his error, I thought it would be useful to mention it for any other person that want to try this. [LIST=1] [*]I went to "Add Remove Programs" and in the list you can select the MediaPortal TV Server to unintall. [*]It also askes if you want to unstall but keep your settings, and I just opted for a "complete uninstall" (2nd option) I did not use the 3rd because I'm worried it would delete my whole MediaPortal folder. [*]Then it pops up a dialog with no real indication of what it is for, but after noticing that the uninstall process is waiting for me to do something, I just pressed the "Test" button (only thing you can do!). Then everything got green and a "Delete" button appeared, which finally made sense. So I deleted the MySQL db with the press of the "Delete" button. [*]Then the uninstall continued and was completed. [/LIST] At this point I was quite happy until I tried to run MP Config, which didn't open and presented me with an error that explained that log4net was missing. So I thought, I would just reinstall/repair MediaPortal. The setup didn't want to run because it said I already have MP 1.4.0 and cannot update it. Also taking the route through "Add Remove Programs" also did not have a "repair" option. (Only "uninstall"). So I basically just downloaded the log4net project files and then copied the log4net.dll file from the "bin\net\2.0\release" folder in the zip file that I downloaded.
