    I was using the unlink function for this and had the filepaths correct but for some reason it erases another file rather than the file which the filepath points to :confused: The filepath is stored in a database. Just wondering if anyone had an idea why its erasing a different file?

    you've tried debugging this ? (to make sure the filename / path its deleting is the correct one)

    Either the file doesn't exist or the filepath is wrong I'm guessing...and even at that, the file not existing shouldn't cause a problem.

    Are you sure the correct filepath is stored in the database?
