RMVLNK does not work

Any error messages? Make sure all logging is turned on with CHGJOB LOG(4 00 *SECLVL) LOGCLPGM(*YES)

What are the user's authorities to the parent directory? I think the user needs *RWX and *OBJEXIST in the parent directory to delete a sub-directory. Chris Ringer

Request cannot be completed. Directory contains objects.

Also, the user has *ALLOBJ on the system.

I am trying to delete a directory in the IFS using RMVLNK or DEL and it does not delete the directory (even if the directory is empty). This is in a CL pggm.

I have had tremendous difficulty using RMVLNK until someone suggested using FTP. My original problem had to do with files and directories that had invalid names. RMVLNK would'nt recognize that the object even existed even though I could see it using WRKLNK. I got the FTP tip here in this forum.
