Webdav gives root access when folder is deleted

Hi, I gave someone access to a specific folder on the server using WebDav. As it is about some kind of CMS, the user can delete this folder (which should stay possible). I would expect that if the folder is deleted, the user doesn't have any access anymore. But instead he gets access to the root folder...! Any way to change this?

  Hi @ev2945 Can you provide the exact replication steps on how to reproduce this issue? Here's what I attempted thus far and was unable to replicate: 1. Create a new WebDisk account from cPanel>>Files>>WebDisk -> Create an Additional Web Disk Account 2. When creating the account assigned it access to public_html/webdavtest 3. Added a test.txt file in the public_html/webdavtest folder to ensure i can view/edit contents 4. Logged in at

  Hi Lauren, Thanks for having a look at it! Here are the steps I followed: 1. Cpanel >> User Manager --> Edit User 2. Services - enable Web Disk 3. Set home directory, read-write 58037 4. folder accessible, using cyberduck 58041 5. user deletes course via web application (and with that, the subfolder within that was made accessible via web disk) 6. user logs in on webdisk via cyberduck - sees root folder instead (with read & write access) 58045
