Could not delete directory

    When I select the “Delete Cache” option in the adminbar of the current page (where I want the cache deleted), I get a blank page with the following text: “Could not delete directory”.

    Is this a file permission issue? If so, what how do I resolve it?

    Thanks!

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    It probably is a permission issue. Have you tried using the debug log? That might tell you which directory it’s trying to delete and you can check yourself.

    Ok, I turned on logging (with a fresh log file) and attempted to delete the page’s cache. Looking at the log file, I’m not completely sure how to tell what’s going on. I can see the following (note, I removed the path to my root):

    Any ideas?

    Thanks!

    Nothing there is related to deleting files, if all you see is that permission message, it might be the last entry in the debug log.

    I’m seeing this as well, and it’s almost certainly not a permission issue. I’m investigating further.

    I’ve opened a bug report on GitHub with a candidate fix: https://github.com/Automattic/wp-super-cache/issues/380.
