File Permissions
I'm having trouble getting Links to create my directories with maximum permissions. I have the permissions variable set correctly, I think:

$build_dir_per = 0777;

But, it's not working. Now, I can't delete any of the directories created by Links.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

-Ryan

If you're using WS_FTP as your ftp client, then it's probably because you directories are not empty. First delete all files in the directory, and then the directory.

No, that's not it. I can't delete files or directories. If file permissions aren't set properly in the first place, they're owned by the server. Since I can't log-in as root, I need to have my ISP delete them for me.

You need to get a copy of Mark Badolato's Wipeout script...

Yeah, I was thinking a script could probably delete them. I will e-mail Mark. But, I still don't see why my script's not saving with maximum permissions....

Thanks,
