Question for the Vbulletin users and the Ibproarcade?

Ok, I have just reverted my VB to the stock template which is default now! I had ibproarcade on the old template. I am going to reinstall it on a new template. I used the uninstall feature for the plugin in the admin CP, then started deleting the files off of the server. Well some of the files cannot be deleted? This seems very strange. So I tried to CHMod 777 the whole arcade folder through my FTP client and it won't even let me change the permissions on some of the files? Does anyone have a clue about what is going on? My only rational thinking on this is that the files are being used by another site similtaniously (sp). Does that make any sense? Any help on this will be repped and greatly appreciated! Thanks

 

If you think that is so then rename the directoys first, would also cover if the files are in use from your own site. {my mybe faulty logic}

 

Thanks, trying right now!

 

Well, permission is still denied when trying to delete the files off of the server? Any other suggestions out there?

 

550 Could not delete display.swf: Permission denied

is the error I am getting when renaming or deleting the files!

 

sounds like you may be using an online file manager via your browser.

try ftp using something like
http://software.visicommedia.com/en/products/aceftp/
it's free to use apart from a nag screen and will probably be able to deleate via that.

 

Thanks, will give it a try later! I am using an ftp client (smart ftp). Is that the problem?
