# PLUGIN_TABLE_IDENTITY_UNREADABLE

The database could not report the identity of a table a full uninstall drops, so the uninstall could not check its hook left it in place.

## Cause

The database could not report the identity of a table a full uninstall drops, so the uninstall could not check its hook left it in place.

A full uninstall reads each table's identity before and after the plugin's `onUninstall`, so its DOWN migrations never drop a table the hook put in place of the one they were judged against. The database reported none for a table, or on SQLite its schema version could not be read.

## Fix

* Follow the Next line: run the uninstall again, or run it with `--keep-data` to leave the tables in place.

## Example

```text
✗ The database reports no identity for seo_redirects, so whether @acme/seo's onUninstall leaves it in place could not be checked.
  Why:  A full uninstall reads each table's identity before and after the plugin's `onUninstall`, so its DOWN migrations never drop a table the hook put in place of the one they were judged against. Nothing was changed.
  Next: Use --keep-data to leave its tables in place.
