I've had quite a few problems with deleting gallery components and even gallery itself when embedded within mambo. I can't delete folders with command line access or ftp. I even can't chmod the files.

What is causing this? Is there a workaround instead of me having to employ my host each time I want to delete gallery folders? This has happened to me now using two different hosts.

Check out "Bharat's Cleanup Script" in the downloads section.

Already tried that. Don't see anything changing. Can't tell if it even works.

All the cleanup script does is chmod the files so that you can delete them yourself.

When files are uploaded, they're owned by the webserver, not by your user.
