Description From Peter Lane 2005-07-19 12:19:28

I'm having problems deleting directories with the trunk code (haven't tried the
4.0 branch).  I get the following debug output, but the directory has not been
deleted:

I just tried this with the globus_4_0_branch code and am having the same
problem:

I just ran a simple test with rft command line client to delete a dir and it
worked. I verified the notification 
is sent correctly. What version of gridftp server are you using ?

------- Comment #3 From Ravi Madduri 2005-07-19 14:27:09 -------

I think Peter was using pre 3.9.5 gridftp server that did not support recursive
directory delete. For those 
servers RFT deletes all the files in the directory but the dir structure
remains intact.

------- Comment #4 From Peter Lane 2005-07-19 14:54:51 -------

A rebuild of the GridFTP server from the trunk solved the problem.
