Hello I recently created a new forum and then upgraded it to a newer version. But then I decided I didn't want them no more and deleted them.
But when I deleted them the space it was taking up didn't go back down in the Disk Usage bit and then I had a look at the Disk Usage Viewer thing and the forums I had deleted werent there. I don't know whether it only deleted the forum files the scripts recognised or what?? Well my space is runing out I want to install new stuff with requires more space and well. Disk usage 101.46 / 150.00 MB opefully someone will understand what I am talking about. |

database eats up disk space also. if it's not deleted with your forum uninstall, you may have to delete the database via cpanel. clean up other DBs which you are not using anymore. although DB size may not be that significant, it can add more to your disk space if you get rid of unused DBs.
or, it could just be another cpanel glitch (like the bandwidth glitch, which incorrectly reports bandwidth usage in cpanel). wait for a day, then check again... |

Hey I got the same problem. I just removed an installation of geeklog and was about to install PHPnuke, but then I noticed the disk usage never went down after removing geeklog. I have checked in the cpanel disk usage and it shows nothing bigger than 0.8MB and that is my images folder. I also checked by ftp but nope the folder is gone and so is my disk space.

In your public_html folder do you have any other files / folders / or directories.
QUOTE / public_html / (Current Folder) _private 755 _vti_bin 755 _vti_cnf 755 _vti_log 755 _vti_pvt 750 _vti_txt 755 cgi-bin 755 images 755 .htaccess 0 k 644 _vti_inf.html 1 k 644 index.html 10 k 755 postinfo.html Because this is the default settings for that folder. |

I have this in my /public_html:
_fpclass 755 _private 755 _themes 755 _vti_bin 755 _vti_cnf 755 _vti_log 755 _vti_pvt 750 _vti_txt 755 cgi-bin 755 images 755 Create New File .htaccess 0 k 644 _vti_inf.html 1 k 644 index.html 1 k 755 postinfo.html 2 k 644 Can I safely delete the stuff not listed in your post? At the moment I have nothing on my site. It is empty so I have no scripts installed that would be messed up or anything. |
