You could, optionally, open an ftp connection.

Use unlink(). If you have an error, it's most likely do to your CHMOD permissions.

Ok this is what I have and tested it but it still doesnt work. I dont get any error just wont delete it.
CHMOD: '777'
File: 'bot.php?deletedb'

Code Select


if($act == "deletedb" ) {
$file = 'public_html/bot/demo/database.db';
Unlink($file);
}

Also just tired changing $file to 'database.db' but it didnt work.

Edit: Sry found the problem :o I did 'bot.php?deletedb' and not 'bot.php?act=deletedb' lol. thx to every1 who helped me
