Video files aren't deleted 1 Year, 7 Months ago Karma: 0
Hi, I'm posting here because I consider it to be a bug, but everyone might not have the same advice.

In short, when I delete a video from the admin board, the video files are not removed from thee disk. Consequently, I have less and less diskspace and thats a problem.
I'm using a classic LAMP solution based on an Ubuntu 10.04, last version of joomla and jvideodirect, the linux user under witch apache is running has full rights on the www folder and is the owner of that folder and the sub-folders.

The only solution I have is to cross check the files on my server and the database, and delete the files that are no longer necessary. That's really not efficient and certainly not the best way to go.

sounds to me it's a directory permission issue.
Are you using suexec ?

Hi.

No suexec on the server.
My site directory is owned by the apache's user and is chmoded to 777, I don't think it's a permission issue.

It should be anything special, it a Jfile::delete command.
Do you have JFTP On?

Hi, no, FTP is not enabled.

I'll try with it and keep you posted.

Hi, it's working with the FTP enabled.

That's strange but it seems that the problem come from Joomla itself.

Thank you for your time.
