Hi, I have had this problem now on two accounts, I have removed an old installation of Gallery and pt on a new and I can delete the old upload directorys and its sub directories by FTP or any other means, The message I get is no permission. 18:07:20] Command: RMD /public_html/gallery/img_dat69/cache/module/rating/0/ Why does this happen? |

I'm guessing that your web server is set up in a way where all files it writes are not owned by you, rather owned by it.
There is a tool in <gallery_url>/lib/support that can change\correct permissions. e.g. if you had installed your gallery on:
www.example.com/gallery2
then this would be at:
www.example.com/gallery2/lib/support
Depending on how much control you have over your server, you may not be able to do this from G2 or FTP and require the server administrator to make the changes for you.
