RE: [Bug 486048] Re: directories in trash cannot delete had trouble copying them and put them in trach
Hi, I tried what you said and it didn't work the files are still there I can create files and put them in trash and can get rid of them except for those particular files What originally happed was, I was copying an old dvd to the hard drive because it had some files that were bad when it was copying it would come up with cannot read a particular file would you like to retry, skip or continue so i would have a folder that was incomplete. I would try again and again each time putting the folders into trash so now I have 6 folders of the same type in trash that will not erase -Original Message- From: boun...@canonical.com [mailto:boun...@canonical.com] On Behalf Of dvlchd3 Sent: November-21-09 5:31 AM To: swi...@telus.net Subject: [Bug 486048] Re: directories in trash cannot delete had trouble copying them and put them in trach I was unable to recreate this in 9.04.

[Bug 486048] Re: directories in trash cannot delete had trouble copying them and put them in trach
Ok, it looks like you do not have full permissions to the files and directories within the directories in the trash. This is why it fails when you attempt to empty the trash. First, change all the files within your trash to be owned by you: sudo chown -R stevew.stevew ~/.local/share/Trash/files Then change the permissions to rwx for everyone. This is usually dangerous to do, but since we are just going to delete them afterwards, it doesn't really matter. sudo chmod 777 ~/.local/share/Trash/files Then try emptying your trash. -- directories in trash cannot delete had trouble copying them and put them in trach https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/486048 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Are you referring to the trash feature in nautilus (the one built into Ubuntu's desktop) instead of Firefox? If so, are you able to remove the directories from the ~/.local/share/Trash/files directory, and then recreate the issue? (To remove run command rm -rf ~/.local/share/Trash/files/* -- without quotes) ** Package changed: firefox-3.0 (Ubuntu) = nautilus (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: nautilus (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- directories in trash cannot delete had trouble copying them and put them in trach https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/486048 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Sorry, meant to add this above. Alternatively, you can use the full path name: ls -sail /home/[your_username]/.local/share/Trash/files I believe your username is: stevew but didn't want to assume anything. -- directories in trash cannot delete had trouble copying them and put them in trach https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/486048 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

The command given should work no matter what your present working directory is. Lets see what the permissions are on those directories.
