ftp_rmdir() delete only empty folders...
if you want to delete the entire contents of a folder try its.
Exemple...
<?php
$ftp_server = "YourIP";
$ftp_user_name = "YourUsername";
$ftp_user_pass = "YourPassword";
// Connection
echo "Connecting to $ftp_server";
$conn_id = ftp_connect($ftp_server);
$login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, $ftp_user_name, $ftp_user_pass);
//Enable PASV ( Note: must be done after ftp_login() )
ftp_pasv($conn_id, true);
// check connection
if((!$conn_id) || (!$login_result)){
die("FTP connection has failed !");
}
echo "<br/>Login Ok.";
// Function to delete an entire folder
function ftp_rrmdir($conn_id, $directory){
$lists = ftp_mlsd($conn_id, $directory);
unset($lists[0]);
unset($lists[1]);
foreach($lists as $list){
$full = $directory . '/' . $list['name'];
if($list['type'] == 'dir'){
ftp_rrmdir($conn_id, $full);
}else{
ftp_delete($conn_id, $full);
}
}
ftp_rmdir($conn_id, $directory);
return true;
}
//Now run ftp_rrmdir()
if(ftp_rrmdir($conn_id, 'YOUR/PATH/')){
echo = "Folder deleted !";
}
//close
ftp_close($conn_id);
?>
