I installed IDP in a lab environment a year ago. I tried to update IDP and it has failed.

I thought I would try a new install so I deleted the automation scripts, the Views and Elements.   At least I think I have.

When I run the wizard now, I get the following message "Failed to retrieve the components from the IDP element. It appears some of the views are created but not the elements nor the Visios.  2 Elements were created.

I am wondering if I did not remove everything to do a clean IDP install.

Hi Randy,

Just want to double-check that most of the elements created by IDP are hidden as you can see in the GIF below.

Can you please check this?

In my recent experience, deleting all the elements (including hidden elements) and automation scripts should be sufficient to clean up IDP; however, I also would like to suggest you contact the IDP team since they can provide some extra IDP clean-up tools.

Thanks Jeeva. I took a look at the log file. It appears I might have an installation issue.

I will reach out to the IDP team. From a small cut and paste of the log, it appears that the element does not start correctly because of various errors.
