David Valdes Posted September 13, 2003 Posted September 13, 2003 I have been running a contact management system that has created files and directories and assigned ownership and group as "99" with restrictive permissions. Now I want to delete these files and directories and can't because I am not 99. Since I do not have root access, how do I change the permissions so that I can delete all of them? Is there a script available that could do this? Is there any way to chown or override the permissions through cPanel? How do I configure a php script to run as me or other alias? Note: there is no way to do this through the application that created the files and directories because something got corrupted. Quote
TCH-Rick Posted September 13, 2003 Posted September 13, 2003 The simplest option would be to submit a Help Desk ticket and describe exactly which files or directories you need deleted and we can take care of that. A similar problem is when you are able to delete the files but they will not empty from your trash. We can delete those as well. Quote
