I did encountered a corrupt installation and I tryed to delete all of the files and folders of the installation, but I couldnt delete the index folder and all the folders and files it contains. The permisions of the files are 644 and I can't change the permissions. The permissions of the folders are either 755 or 777, and also I could not change them. Same thing if I log into the cpanel of the server.
How do I proceed to delete them
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Not sure why you would need to delete them (and hopefully you have backups), but at the least, with an Index folder of 777, simply change the title of the folder to something not used and proceed from there with a reinstallation. You should be able to change permissions on the files, so later, I would inquire of your host as to the reason for this issue and ask them to resolve it, including deletion of the newly renamed folder (no longer index).
Also, you may wish to install into an entirely new directory. -Stephen
