    Symlinked folders

    All Gallery2 fans...listen up

    Acting on advice
    I created a folder called gallery2, which I suspect was not necessary.
    I wanted to use CVS so that I could upgrade easily...
    In SSH I used
    cd public_html
    cd gallery2
    and then
    Code:
    $ cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.sf.net:/cvsroot/gallery co gallery2
    too late, I find out that that creates and populates http://mysite.com/gallery2/gallery2
    I deleted both with Filezilla successfully byt Cpanel tells me they are still there.
    I can't delete with Cpanel
    I cant rm with SSH
    Now, I can't delete either folder

    I can't afford to mess up this site because it is an organization in the midst of a two week Nationwide Tour and all cameras are full.

    Is this something worth a trouble ticket?

    Yes. It could be that permissions were set to a different user on the system when using the CVS download.

    You can check that by doing ls -lah via SSH and seeing what user and group they're set to.
