Unaccessible folder in public/html

[isaeldal]

Hello!
I cannot access my script folder in the main public/html, when i try to delete it inside the cpanel, it comes again after refreshing, and all the files inside it appears to be broken, when i try to access it via my FTP, i have a 550 error: access denied. I may as well reload all those scripts to another folder, but i found this very intriguing and i fear this may happens again. No way those files are malicious, it's only pretty basic JS functions and a mail sending PHP file.... Someone has any idea?

Change the permission of that directory to 777 and try again

Hi isaledal,

Your script folder had incorrect permissions set, as @ChatIndia suggested, and was set to 644 instead of 755. I've changed the directory permissions for you, and your script directory now appears to be loading.

Thank you,

Hey thanks a lot to both of you!
Did'nt knew it needed permission for execution also. As a novice, i thought only .exe and some others were considered as executable!

You need to "execute" the folder (which is really just a pointer file) in order to use it to get to its "contents". Yes, it's a little bit weird.
