Can't get into control panel due to module conflict

    I have a site built in EE 2.1.3 here: http://arda.headspacedesign.ca/

    It uses the multi-site manager, and there is a sub site built off of it in another subdomain here: http://investattract.headspacedesign.ca/

    Everything was working fine, but foolishly, I installed the structure module for the sub site when I already had the pages module installed on the parent site. Once I did that, it broke both sites and generated a database error:

    A Database Error Occurred

    Error Number: 1146
    Table 'arda_dev_mysql.exp_structure_settings' doesn't exist
    SELECT var_value, var FROM exp_structure_settings WHERE site_id IN (0,1)
    Filename: third_party/structure/sql.structure.php
    Line Number: 50

    So once I realized that I deleted the module from my third-party folder, and now it generates this error:

    error
    Unable to load the following extension file:
    ext.structure.php

    This error occurs even when pointed to the control panel, so there’s no way apparently for me to log in and turn off the module.

    Please help!

    You can momentarily disable extensions altogether. Edit .../system/expressionengine/config/config.php and set allow_extensions to “n””:

    $config['allow_extensions'] = "n";

    Ah… good to know. We ended up fixing it just my manually editing the database tables, but this will help in the future. Thanks!
