I have two G2 installations using a common codebase (multisite). The first upgrade went off without any problems... the second couldn't upgrade the URL Rewrite module. Clicking on upgrade gives me:

"Security Violation

from the 2.2-rc-1 feedback topic:

mikeage, did you extract 2.2-rc-1 on top of the existing codebase or remove the old and put 2.2-rc-1 in place? The error indicates the code for a 3rd party module is no longer there, so the site using that module got an error.

oh, right, forgot to answer that ;)

I extracted 2.2RC1 on top of 2.1.2.

Oh... ok. I was thinking it was a problem with URL Rewrites, and totally forgot that I (used to) have the updates module installed. I'd deleted it from within one multisite, forgetting that another still used it (I now use a dynamic album instead).

Without re-installing it (since I don't recall which version I had), is there a way to remove whatever it left behind in the database, that the URL rewrite module is trying to update?

On another note, perhaps it should be clarified in the documentation (even though it is rather obvious, if one thinks about it) that install/activate/configure is per-G2 directory, but delete operates on the shared codebase

Fixed.

I reinstalled the updates module, upgraded URL Rewrite, then disabled and removed updates.

Thanks for your help!

absolutely.. you've hit upon one of our high priority items to fix before 2.2 final: http://codex.gallery2.org/index.php/Gallery2:2.2_Release_Blockers#Bug:_DP:_Multisites_can_break_one_another
..but we decided to fix for RC-2 and not hold up RC-1 any longer.. sorry this one bit you!

No biggie. It's actually quite obvious, but I wasn't thinking.

It seems that the fact that the URL Rewrites module can be broken by another module (indeed, any module can, but rewrites is probably the most dependant on other modules) is a more serious issue.
