Can you tell me what the process is to upgrade from 2.70e to 2.70f ? I don't know how much I need to uninstall for the process to work.

Just doing the install without uninstalling the com component errored out. I uninstalled the com_dtregister component and installed the new version and I am now seeing a SQL error on 7eventid.

So am I also supposed to delete the database tables between updates ? If yes can you tell me which one ?

Thanks.

Joomla will not allow you to install a component when it is already there. You need to uninstall the current package, then reinstall the new one. You do not need to manually remove database tables... UNLESS you WANT to start over fresh. Otherwise the uninstall / reinstall will retain your events, settings, etc and just give you an updated set of files including new fixes. Thanks.
