Deleting error webpart without using designer

          I was using a ReportViewerWebPart webpart at my home page. Sometimes during deployment this cause trouble that i could not open my home page since in some servers reports was not configured. I was resolving it using Sharepoint designer. I would open up my home page with sharepoint designer delete the webpart and now i could open my home page.

         Now i have found an alternate solution for this. We could use Web Part Page Maintenance for deleting this error web part. The solution is,

Procedure:

     Add the value ?Contents=1 at the end of your site.

     It now looks like http://yourservername/sites/yoursitename?Contents=1

     Hit Enter, that leads you to webpart maintenance page.

        

  The "Open on Page" shows error if that webpart contains error. you can select that particular webpart and delete it.

     Now the error webparts in homepage is deleted and the home page is displayed without the error webparts.
