Hey guys!

I was wondering how you uninstall Gallery? I have it on one of my sites, and love it! I just have it on one of my orgininal sites and I don't want it there anymore. However, when I try to delete files/folers via FTP, it won't lete me delete all of them. I tried chmod-ing too, but that didnt help.

Any thoughts?

It didn't work because not you, but the webserver user is the owner of the files. That's how gallery works.
Use Bharat's cleanup script from this link:
http://gallery.menalto.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=Downloads&file=index&req=viewdownload&cid=6

I'm sure this is also documented in the FAQ.

I tried running the script and it didn't work.

Please know, that I've deleted everything else from the gallery folder, with the exception of the 3 subfolders contained within it that I mentioned in my first post. I've tried manually changing the CHMOD permissions, to no avail.

Still stumped. :-?

Have your host delete them for you.
