Remove plugin via CLI

[sparvy]

hello,
I've installed FinTube but there is something wrong with installation.
I've added the repository 

Code:

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AECX/FinTube/master/manifest.json

and installed the latest version 1.0.1.0.
I've rebooted the server and this is the result



The version is wrong and the plugin seems broken.
I tryied to uninstall the plugin via GUI but nothing appens so I've tryied to delete the directory /var/lib/jellyfin/plugins/FinTube_1.0.1.0 and the jellyfin stop working after reboot.

I've reinstalled everyting (jelly and fintube) and now I've the same problem, maybe because I've restored previous configuration files.
There is a way to uninstall a plugin via CLI?
Tnx in advance.

In addition to deleting /var/lib/jellyfin/plugins/FinTube_1.0.1.0, there are also files for it located in /var/lib/jellyfin/plugins/configurations. Delete the related files in that directory and it shouldn't attempt to run or reinstall the next time you start Jellyfin.

tnx pirate for your help.

there is nothing in configuration related to fintube

Code:

.rw-r--r-- 227 jellyfin jellyfin 15 Jul 12:38 Jellyfin.Plugin.AudioDb.xml
.rw-r--r-- 299 jellyfin jellyfin 11 Jul 13:15 Jellyfin.Plugin.MusicBrainz.xml
.rw-r--r-- 217 jellyfin jellyfin 13 Jul 09:58 Jellyfin.Plugin.Omdb.xml
.rw-r--r-- 275 jellyfin jellyfin 13 Jul 13:59 Jellyfin.Plugin.StudioImages.xml
.rw-r--r-- 413 jellyfin jellyfin 11 Jul 13:15 Jellyfin.Plugin.Tmdb.xml

anyway I've
- renamed the dir /var/lib/jellyfin/plugins/FinTube_1.0.1.0 to /var/lib/jellyfin/plugins/FinTube_1.0.0.0
- restarted the service instead of doing a reboot (service jellyfin restart)
- uninstalled the plugin via GUI
- restarted jellyfin
- installed the 1.0 version
- restarted jellyfin
- uninstalled the 1.0
- restarted jellyfin
- installed 1.0.1.0

initially the plugin was shown version 1.0.1.0 but, after the last restart, now the plugin show 1.0.0.0 version so I think the problem is the plugin, not my installation.

p.s. I hate the button "Reboot" that reboot the system... there is no option for replace "reboot" with "restart service"?

Submit an issue to the plugin's git. Hopefully the author can help.

I have the same issue, but with Windows (11) machine   ... Just wondered, did you contacted the plugin author or got this sorted out?

I was not able to find any plugins-related things in my Jellyfin folders, and like you, was not unable to uninstall it from the web-view.

I am also pretty sure that I installed the newer version, and not the 1.0.0.0 . But can't be sure. And cannot update to the newer version.

Someone else reported this issue in June.

https://github.com/AECX/FinTube/issues/12

The reporter provided them with the change needed and the file appears to have been updated.

You may be able to update the file manually since it sounds like it isn't being updated without there being a new release.

Look in C:\ProgramData\Jellyfin\Server\plugins\Fintube_1.0.1.0\ (going from memory, but you get the idea) and there should be a meta.json file in there. Open it in notepad and update 1.0.0.0 to 1.0.1.0.
