Admin Login broken after installing extension. Help!

Version 1.9 I donwloaded this extension

 

https://www.magentocommerce.com/magento-connect/product-attachments-extension.html

and installed via magento connect. I uploaded the .tar file from my local machine. The installation seemed to work OK. No error messages.

 

But when I try to login as an administrator I get

"There has been an error processing your request"

 

Here's a copy of the error from from var/reports

(I replaced the domain name with xxxx)

 

Maybe I should delete the new extension files by hand? Would that revert the magento installation to its previous state?

Hi @Piert

 

Are you using magento compilation feature? I suspect yes, if yes then first disable it then install the extension and re enable compilation.

Re: Admin Login broken after installing extension. Help!

I partially fixed the problem by disabling the extension. by editing the relevant xml files in app/etc/modules.

 

Now I can login again. I'm still wondering what went wrong with the extension installation.

Thanks Muk!!! That did the trick.

EDIT : I spoke too soon. I disabled compilation and successfully installed the extension, but when I re-enabled compilation the same error occurred. So it is not fixed...
