Cannot send files to the basket bin [Solved]

@pcfan
IIRC, you had a little trouble setting up the DATA partition - or whatever was used.
You may want to include that link, or at least the part indicating what you did.

Also, IIRC, I would not have done it the way that you did, BUT that's mostly because I really only know my method.

IIRC, CB bailed me out.

Good Luck

let me know how to do this please.

that means you have no files in that folder / directory. In order to see your rights for that folder.. you need to be one folder above it and do this:

Code: Select all

ls -ld your_directory

ls is the list command.

- indicates the beginning of the command options.

l asks for a long list which includes the permissions.

d indicates that the list should concern the named directory itself; not its contents. If no directory name is given, the list output will pertain to the current directory.

Code: Select all

ls -ld your_directory

"ls -la" should also provide this info, since it will include the . and .. directories in its output.

Correct, I just wanted to get a little closer to 'the' folder', without all the other potential files etc.

No disagreement there but if the directory is empty as we know it is, it wouldn't be a huge issue.

I just meant find your former url link and then simply paste it in a post.
I realize some time has elapsed since then, and others are addressing the issue.

Hope this is what you are asking. : )

Yup.. and that shows that your group owner permissions are not Read+writable.

Have a look here at the permissions you should have for a folder / file.
