FTP Cannot delete folder

Hello,

I have virtualmin working smoothly now but when I try to download "some" folder from FTP it says "550 Directory not empty". I say some because sometimes I can delete the folders. :(

Could anyone give me the insight and how to fix it?

BTW, I use proFTPd

Thanks!

I suspect that there's a hidden file in the directory that your FTP client is configured not to display by default.

A hidden file in this case probably begins with a "." -- what I would do is verify that your FTP client is configured to show all files.
