# Plugin: TinyMCE installation error

 * When trying to install the TinyMCE plugin, I get an error message. I think it
   started because I accidentally installed the TinyMCE Advanced first. I deleted
   it from the /wp-admin/plugins.php page, and then I removed both plugin folders(
   tinymce and the advanced folder) from the wp-content/plugins folder on my server.
 * But when I try to re-install the TinyMCE plugin (by adding the installation zip-
   file via the /wp-admin/plugin-install.php page), I get the following error message
   at the top of the screen:
 * _Warning: include\_once(/customers/lc-norway.com/lc-norway.com/httpd.www/wp-content/
   plugins/tinymce/) [function.include-once]: failed to open stream: Success in /
   customers/lc-norway.com/lc-norway.com/httpd.www/wp-settings.php on line 465_
 * Warning: include_once() [function.include]: Failed opening ‘/customers/lc-norway.
   com/lc-norway.com/httpd.www/wp-content/plugins/tinymce/’ for inclusion (include_path
   =’.:/usr/share/php’) in /customers/lc-norway.com/lc-norway.com/httpd.www/wp-settings.
   php on line 465
 * I guess this means that the plugins have changed something in the wp-settings.
   php file, but I tried uploading a clean version from my harddisk, and I still
   get the same error message.
 * Deleting the tinymce folder from the wp-content/plugins folder removes the error
   message from the site.
 * So, what’s wrong? What do I do to set everything back to scratch and start an
   entirely clean installation of TinyMCE?
