Installation Help Ubuntu 14.04

[barrecan]

Hey,

I have successfully installed Subsonic before, but after I uninstalled and tried to reinstall, it stopped working. I believe the problem is that I don't have permission to access the subsonic files from my old installation. I am fairly new to linux so troubleshooting is a bit difficult for me. I tried to delete the remaining /etc/default/subsonic directory but it says the directory does not exist, although I can view it when I "ls -a".

I "succesfully" apt-get removed Subsonic but when I tried to reinstall, it throws a chown error.

If anyone can help me completely delete the old installation so I can succesful reinstall it would be greatly appreciated.

thanks -

I don't know about the rest of your problem, but I can tell you the first issue is that you aren't able to cd into the directory because it's a file, not a directory

You might just need to do this with root permissions if you current user does not have access. Add 'sudo' before your command to execute it with root.

If that does not work I would check the permissions of the files. You can do 'ls -la' to give a list format with more details and permissions.
