Errors on install and uninstall.

[equinox]

I tried this out just before the last update to it, since then, when it updated it gave me an error saying it couldn't install the update then just now when trying to uninstall it's again giving me an error saying it cannot uninstall it.

I'm using Brackets 1.1 and Windows 7.

You can uninstall the extension by deleting the C:\Users\<Your Username>\AppData\Roaming\Brackets\extensions\user\jasonsanjose.brackets-sass folder.

@Equinoxdawg If you could send me the errors you get on uninstall, that would be great.

1. Debug > Show Developer Tools
2. Try Uninstall
3. Copy console log from dev tools

Thanks!

I had done what you suggested Nicolo just after posting this issue, thankfully it worked. I have now reinstalled and was able to reproduce. I opened the dev tools, but there was nothing new between opening the tools and it giving me the error and reloading anyway. It now shows after reload: " GET file:///C:/Users/name/AppData/Roaming/Brackets/extensions/user/jasonsanjose.brackets-sass/main.js net::ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND
ErrorNotification.js:125 [Extension] failed to load C:/Users/name/AppData/Roaming/Brackets/extensions/user/jasonsanjose.brackets-sass - Module does not exist: file:///C:/Users/name/AppData/Roaming/Brackets/extensions/user/jasonsanjose.brackets-sass/main.js"

Edit: I just tried again, and this time as well, there was no errors or anything in the console.

When I try to uninstall everything but this file gets deleted.

So I guess this file causes the issue, Debug Console is empty.

I think I know what's causing this now. The compiler runs as a child processes (see https://github.com/jasonsanjose/brackets-sass/blob/master/node/1.1.4-3/SASSDomain.js#L173) and I'm not killing the process when an remove/upgrade happens.

This will be a tricky one to fix and might require something drastic:

1. Quit and manual delete and/or
2. Change the extension ID so that the next version is not an upgrade, but a completely separate extension

Let me think about this a bit.

[jasonsanjose]

If my theory is right, users should be able to uninstall if the compiler hasn't run in the current session of Brackets. For example:

1. Quit and restart Brackets
2. Don't compile or view any .sass/.scss files
3. Remove the extension via extension manager

Could be the same cause as these uninstall bugs:

• Cannot uninstall #29
• Unable to install after update #84

@jasonsanjose I've tested it (started Brackets with no files open & empty project-folder) but still got the same error on uninstalling.

The workaround does not work I guess ^^

[jasonsanjose]

@ofhouse can you try a manual uninstall (instead of extension manager) instead? https://github.com/jasonsanjose/brackets-sass/wiki/Manual-Uninstall

[nicolo-ribaudo]

@jasonsanjose Are you working on this bug?

Edit:
#107

[jasonsanjose]

Not currently. I'll take a look at you PR. Thanks!

Quoting the wiki:

Some users have reported issues on Windows that prevent uninstalling the extension.

Same issue on Debian as well.
