Delete Primary Pipeline Configuration.

Avatar

The IT team has rebuilt the network mount points for our projects ahead of me 'moving_project' using Tank, and I am now stuck with invalid configuration locations. Any attempt to access the project using Tank now fails due the failed configuration lookup, and I would like to 'Blow Away' the configuration in Shotgun.

How can I delete the Primary Pipeline Configuration in Shotgun and rebuild it? It would seem most obvious to remove the tag from the SG configurations page, but this has not produced any positive results.

    Hi Robert.

    By default, the setup_project command excludes Project that have already been set up before, assuming that you wouldn't want to see them in the list when setting up a new Project.  However, you can pass the --force flag, and it will list all Projects.  You can use this to rerun the Project setup in a scenario like the one you describe.

    When you use the --force flag, it will retire the previous primary pipeline configuration and create a new one (I think this is what you want here, right?).  Run it like this:

        > tank setup_project --force

    You'll want to move your old pipeline configuration out of the way if you're trying to set it up in the same spot but I don't think that's the case here?

    I'm not sure if it is because the original install is missing (and can't be 'forced' in some operation), or some other cause, but calls to *_install --force have not worked. 

     

    What's involved in getting an uninstall script working?

    This is working at home (OS X), and I'm going to run through it again tomorrow in the studio. I have a feeling there is some network lag causing a disconnect between cleaning up dirs/permissions on files being managed by SG.

     

    Thanks again for the help,
