Post subject: Error message: Could not delete folder

Post by ayrehead » Wed May 28, 2014 6:59 pm

Whenever I change a menu item, or unpublish it, or publish it I get a red message on the screen:
JFolder::delete: Could not delete folder

Am attaching a file, a screen shot. The menu item works ok anyway. I never used to have this problem. Started 1 month ago. How can I eliminate the error?
Am running 1.5.26 on a Windows server.

I solved the problem. The file at
libraries\joomla\filesystem\path.php
has incorrect syntax, so it was not reporting the problematic path.
I changed a line to:

'JFolder::delete: ' . JText::_('Could not delete folder') . $path,

It now reports the path that has a problem and I can change it so it's not Read Only.
