weizuo93 opened a new issue #4500: URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-doris/issues/4500
When I install a FE plugin developed by myself using command `install plugin from ...;` through mysql-client, the process of installation failed due to my code problems. After I modified the plugin code and reinstalled it using command `install plugin from ...;`, mysql-client reported an error that the plugin has already been installed. Thus, I used command `uninstall plugin ...;` to uninstall the plugin for the purpose of next reinstallation, and something unexpected happened that mysql-client reported an another error that the plugin does not exist. In other words,the modified plugin can not be reinstalled. Display the installed plugins currently using command `show plugins;` and I find that the plugin mentioned before does not exist.  After logging in the FE node machine, I found that the the directory of plugin mentioned before does exist under `$plugin_path`. After deleting the directory manually , the plugin mentioned before can be reinstalled successfully. I think it is a bug. When the installation fails, it is unreasonable to create a directory for the plugin under `$plugin_path` on the FE. Next, I plan to fix this bug. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
