Hi, I have a paid account.
In my cgi-bin folder, there are some files that cannot be deleted but can be edited (the files exist).

When I tried to delete or move them, I got the following messages: ( ...=file name)

COMMAND:>   DELE /public_html/cgi-bin/...

550 /public_html/cgi-bin/...: Permission denied

ERROR:>      Requested action not taken (e.g., file or directory not found, no access).

Can anyone help me out here? Thanks

If they were files automatically created by a PHP or Perl(CGI) script, then they might not be deletable because the system thinks they are not created by your username. Therefore, you won't have permission to delete.

Please e-mail support@lunarpages with the names of the files and the exact error message you get.

I see and yes, you're right. They are created by CGI Scripts.
OK, I'll email then.
Thanks
