    I had this problem myself. I'm guessing the files inside the cache directory are being created with different permissions/ownership. The cache directory itself had the correct permissions as i had created that originally.

    I got around it by using the file manager from cpanel and deleting and recreating the cache directory.

    don't have cpanel.. just my good 'ol ftp client flashfxp..:)

    There is a way around this - which is to create the album cache folders and set the chmod to 777 manually before ftp-ing the files of new albums. A pain, but at least you dont have to rely on the hosting provider to delete cache files

    Hi all,

    I had the same problems, being not able to delete the cache folder.
    If you want to delete the files, there is a nice little php program you can use:

    At least I could remove all the trash from the cache folder.

    Greetz,

    Good suggestion lupker. :-)

    This is fixed in the next release, which should be out soon. Sorry for the problem everyone.
