Post subject:  Trying to uninstall TWG, error in permissions.
I uninstalled TWG because it wasn't working on our site (a bunch of errors).

So I deleted the directory that contained it, but one file remained. http://devcast.dcemulation.com/trash/tw ... ilable.jpg

When deleting it with Core FTP Lite, it says I don't have the permissions to delete it. The permissions on the file are set to "644," and I cannot change the permissions.

However, when trying to delete it with an FTP script, it does not even show up. I still can't delete that folder though. But I can rename the root folder that it was in (now it is named trash).

Is there any way for me to delete the file? Was there a setting in TWG that needed to be set for an uninstall?

Hi,

First it would be intereesting why it wasn't working. have you checked the info.php?

Back to your prob.
- have you used the installer or the zip version?
- have you tried to change the permissions to 777 of this file?

This simply a file like any other in the cache dir - have you had any other files in there? because then you shouldn't be able to delete them either!

- what are the permissions of the cache directory? set this to 777 to!

If you get a bunch of errors right after you start twg then normaly something is wrong with the file permissions.

As you can see, I cannot perform the permissions change. Everything else other than that file and the corresponding folders have been deleted.

- Is safemode enabled on your system?
- have you used the installer ?

How do I check if safemode is enabled?

I used the installer, but saw no button for uninstall, so I manually went through and deleted everything.
Author:  TinyWebGallery [ 19. Jun 2006, 15:57 ]
Post subject: 
during installation this is told in big red letters if safe mode is enabled - if everything was green your are fine.

or the info.php does tell you (but you have deleted it already).

you can try to delete the file with php:

copy a file with this content to the main dir
<?php
unlink ("cache/_rotation_available.jpg");
?>

and execute it

Code:
Warning: unlink(): SAFE MODE Restriction in effect. The script whose uid/gid is 17615/17600 is not allowed to access cache/_rotation_available.jpg owned by uid/gid 33/33 in /sites/dcemulation.com/devcast/trash/twg14/index.php on line 24


Ummm, this is bad, huh?
Author:  TinyWebGallery [ 19. Jun 2006, 16:43 ]
Post subject: 
at least you know that safemode is on.

If you have used the installer you have ignored all the warnings there ;).

anyway -

add

umask(0000);
copy("del.php", "delsm.php");

to the file you have created - replace the del.php with your filename.
then call delsm.php

because of umask the new created files should have 777 and can be deleted then.

Do what where? :lol:

Code:
<HTML>
<BODY>
<?php unlink ("cache/_rotation_available.jpg"); ?>
</BODY>
</HTML>


Should it now be:
Code:
<HTML>
<BODY>
umask(0000);
copy("del.php", "delsm.php");
<?php unlink ("cache/_rotation_available.jpg"); ?>
</BODY>
</HTML>

And where do I put these files?
Currently the php is in the base directory of twg. Do I move it to the cache directory?

That is the last time I install things so quickly. lol.

no -

HTML>
<BODY>
<?php
umask(0000);
copy("del.php", "delsm.php");
unlink ("cache/_rotation_available.jpg");
?>
</BODY>
</HTML>


and replace del.php with the filename where this code is in!
leave the file where it is.

<?php

unlink ("cache/_rotation_available.jpg");

That is my file. Is that okay?
Author:  TinyWebGallery [ 19. Jun 2006, 17:09 ]
Post subject: 
if your file is called index.php - yes-

execute - and then you should get the delsm.php

execute this one and the file in the cache should be gone

IT WORKED!

That is a pretty nifty trick.

Thank you for the help!

at which webhoster is this webpage - because normally even when savemode is on it is possible to delete files with ftp.

This is a quite hard restriction I maybe have to check in the gallery to avoid this problem in the future

I believe the hoster is ztnet.

Perhaps there should be an uninstall script for these sort of situations?
