[resolved] I can't remove any WP-cache files from my directory (7 posts)

    I've installed the WP-Cache plugin a time ago. It was working quite nice but i've really screwed up the upgrade of WordPress. That was solved by dumping all MySQL-tables and removing the directory. I thought so...

    Removing a few files left by the removed WP-cache plugin isn't possible. The chmod-permissions were set om 644, i've tried to change them via the bash-shell to 775 but the permission was denied. As a matter of fact, nothing even works to remove them.

    Does anyone know any solution for this minor problem? Thanks in advance for any comment.

    Kind regards,
    Alex.

    You probably have to write a script to change permission or to remove them.

    I've never had a problem via FTP -- maybe the ftp client usually has a higher perm level than the shells?

    @ D:

    Yes, FTP had a higher permission level than the shell. And trying to delete the files doesn't help, neither with the shell nor with FTP. I think it's clearly a permission problem but i can't think 1-2-3 of a solution how to solve this.

    You may need to ask your host to nuke them.
