Solved Can't delete jail directory.

[rigoletto@]

Hello,

I was trying Jails but I end up with a directory I can't delete: /usr/jail/www.

I did it using:

setenv D /usr/jail/www
mkdir -p $D
cd /usr/src
make installworld DESTDIR=$D
make distribution DESTDIR=$D

Any ideia?

Thanks!

chflags -R noschg * did the job.

chflags -R noschg * did the job.

this solved the issue for me - but just trying to understand if * should be applied to the specific jail directory or just as it's mentioned.

Also trying to understand the noschg argument, couldn't understand/find it on the man page

You certainly don't want to recursively change flags on your whole system, do you?
Sure this assumes your current directory IS the jail you want to modify.

Also trying to understand the noschg argument, couldn't understand/find it on the man page

It's right here in chflags(1):

           schg, schange, simmutable
                       set the system immutable flag (super-user only)

[...]

     Putting the letters “no” before or removing the letters “no” from a
     keyword causes the flag to be cleared.  For example:

           nouchg  clear the user immutable flag (owner or super-user only)
           dump    clear the nodump flag (owner or super-user only)

If you're using ZFS, I'd highly recommend creating a dataset per jail. File flags will not stop you from running zfs destroy (it's a lot faster than rm anyway...).
