    Error when trying to empty recycle bin

    I am getting this error when I try to empty or delete an item in the recycle bin. I am using umbraco 4.9 (upgrade from 4.8).

    Error: Sys.Net.WebServiceFailedException: Sys.Net.WebServiceFailedException: The server method 'EmptyTrashcan' failed with the following error: System.IO.IOException-- The directory is not empty.

    Source File: http://seevic.dev01.onlyw3b.com/ScriptResource.axd?d=LqUeX9qSMtQbIVkqX9TTsptwHV7gAY34UjTQrvlCKesD75mdZBR7B5c4ROr4z8wUBsAKUA4b7R8um8xaePbZCsICUvwX0C0sfZ9L5TlYhIb_Gl5p7rje3xfSOoK9TuJk4JPuMYNgKE0nzRkZryISWhBP2g9oI7kLK-ZU827eLufbMlL7l1U8MNWTzE4b2KSG0&t=ffffffff9ff3d2fc

    I wonder whether it may be a permissions problem.  The physical files aren't being deleted because of a permission problem so the folder cannot be.  What permissions are required on the media folder / subfolders to allow deletion.

    Forgot to mention I'm using umbraco 4.9 (upgraded from 4.8).

    Update

    It's not a permissions problem.  I gave "Everyone" full control to the media folder and all it's children and it still didn't work.

    I believe this is a bug that has been reported here http://issues.umbraco.org/issue/U4-771
