Can't delete files/folders??

I have 2 files that I want to delete on my site as well as 2 folders, but in Cpanel and ftp, I'm unable to delete them.

Any ideas??

could be that they're owed by a PHP installed process, and so are 'owned' by PHP - Nobody.

Email support. They'll fix that right up for you.

I was testing out some templates in mambo to see what ones I like. I went to upload one and it said that the template was already there even though I didn't upload it. I went into both ftp and cpanel and sure enough, it were there but I couldn't delete them. I know they aren't part of mambo as they aren't part of the default install.

No biggie though, I uninstalled mambo and reinstalled it. But if it does happen again, I'll be sure to email support about it.
