Hi.

Are you able to add new files?

This error is saying Omeka can’t delete the file from the files/fullsize directory, which generally would mean the permissions aren’t set properly. If that’s the problem though, you’d probably have issues doing other things like adding files.

Thanks, @jflatnes. adding new files works fine.

delete the file already working:smiley:, I have set the directory / file permissions.

Hello, I’m having the same problem you did : there are items I can’t delete even though I’m able to modify them and add new ones. Could you explain what you did to manage to delete them ? Thanks a lot !
