Hello,

I am running into a weird issue. I downloaded a folder with data via FTP. It had lots of different characters and spaces in the folder name. I was finally able to rename it to something shorter after download was complete, however I can no longer delete the folder now. I have deleted/edited/mvoed hundreds of other folders in that folder, why not this one? Perhaps it is corrupt?

I even tried to delete the parent folder with no luck. Tried to also delete through the FTP program GUI with no luck. I logged in via Putty to my OmniOS and looks like I cannot see the pool through it.

How can I delete the file via command line? Is there an option in nappit?

I would expect a permission problem

You can enable SSH + root access and
- login via putty as root, use mc (midnight commander) to navigate and delete files
- use WinSCP as root to navigate and delete files
