I tried to install a module and did not succesful installing. Despite module is not installed, the name is there and i can not remove from module admin system. Seeing it there emty and not being able to remove it bothers. When i enable debug and tried to uninstal it. I received the message: "Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /home/name/public_html/modules/system/admin/modulesadmin/main.php on line 209"

Somebody tell me how to remove this emty module from modules admin.Thank you

If you resolve the fatal error the module should be able to be uninstalled. Search for the reference Call to a member function on a non-object in the blank page FAQ.

The first thing I learned about modules is : keep he mod files on the server 'till the module is uninstalled.

But reading you I think that install was not succesfull.
So now you cannot uninstall. You can remove the module through phpmyadmin.

But how do I know which tables must be deleted?

What is the name of the module?
This name is used in the database, or a shorter name.
Example : CBB has the name bb in the database, smartsection has the name smartsection, xcgal has xcgal, wordpress has wp.
The name can be found after the prefix (prefix_name)

Post Scriptum : First make a backup of your database!!

But there are several tables like newblocks and templates where informations of the modules are stored.
