Can't Empty Trash

**fasttoon** · June 3, 2003

I have trash that I can't get rid of, it says something like permission denied, can't unlink. How do I clear this up?

Thanks

You may want to drop a help desk ticket so that someone to take a look at it.

Typically this happens if the folder has hidden contents. ...drop the helpdesk ticket in if you haven't already.

or if you do like i did and have a folder with permissions to allow the apache process to write to it.. (ie.. anybody)

and then have a bunch of files owned by a mr nobody.

and a help desk ticket fixed that

I would echo the idea of submitting a Help Desk Ticket. It is fairly simple to fix the problem but will need to be handled on our end.

Thanks I will do that.

Don't know if it was yours, but I just deleted someone's trash.

Yup, must have been because it was about 5 min ago, thanks a lot. It was real irritating with that trash stuck there.

Thanks for the help.
