lost frontend after bad app uninstall

Well, now i've done it... Installed an app, didn't like it. Uninstall had some errors. No longer have frontend admin page.

System is up, I can SSH to it.

My other web UI's work (plex and LMS).

Any ideas on how to recover? Or am I going to need to do a factory reset at this point?

  • I assume remove 090-koken.conf (which is a link pointing nowhere) and reboot?

    Remove it

    # rm /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/090-koken.conf

    and do

    # systemctl restart apache2

    Shouldn't need to reboot.
