Waflix Posted June 24, 2012 Posted June 24, 2012 A while ago I tried to remove a folder from my account. At first, it looked like the deletion was successful, but when I re-accessed the root it was there again. It appears some files inside the folder have weird permissions: 444 and 555.The problem is that I can't remove the folder. Hereby I'd like to ask someone with enough privileges to do this.
Byron Posted June 24, 2012 Posted June 24, 2012 Create a file and name it something like "remove_dir.cgi" and chmod it to 755. Add the code below to that file: #!/usr/bin/perl -w print "Content-Type: text/html\n\n"; system 'rm -r "/home/byron/public_html/folder" 2>&1'; Be sure to set this to your correct npath to your folder: /home/byron/public_html/folder Then click onto that file and all files and folders in that directory (including that directory) should be gone. You'll probably need to refresh your cache.
