Permanently deleting unwanted image-files residing on a NAS
Hello, I am using CO20 and my typical workflow is as such:
a) Coming from a photo shooting I copy the entire SD-card content onto a NAS, which is running in RAID-6 mode.
b) I start CO20, open a new catalog and import all the new images to select what I want to keep and what I want to delete from the NAS.
c) THAT'S WHERE THE TROUBLE STARTS: Yes, I can empty the "catalog trash", yes I can even hit the "delete from disk" button, but in the end of day, none of the image files that I wanted to delete on the NAS does get delete on the NAS.
The simple question is: What's the pragmatic trick to make that work with Capture One 20?
(The CO-support crew is silent)
Best regards
Hubert

Too much guesswork for me I'm afraid. You may have a better chance that other users will chime in with suggestions if you supply a few important details.
Computer system?
NAS system?
File sharing protocol (network) between computer and NAS?
Log on to your NAS (try a web browser) as the admin user. Does the system log have entries related to failed deletes? Does your NAS have a separate access right for "delete", and if yes, what access rights do the C1 NAS user have?
Who, meaning what NAS user owns the files? If NAS user1 transfers files to the NAS, and C1 operates under NAS user2 credentials, your NAS may refuse to delete user1's files.
Log on to the NAS as the C1 NAS user (better not be the admin user :-) Can that user delete a file in one of the troublesome folders? If not, does you NAS send an error message? Log back in as NAS admin and check the log to learn what a successful/failed delete log entry looks like.

Hello Keith, I do want to do culling prior to importing into C1, I do want to cull what I imported to C1.

Hello OddS,
I am using a QNAP 8-bay NAS which runs in RAID6 mode. Let me answer your questions, one by one:
#1: I checked the system log and there's no entries related to failed delets.
#2: The NAS does not have a separate access right for deletes.
#3: I own the files on the NAS. I am the only user and I am only using one idendity.
#4: I don't know how to delete from C1 a file on the NAS => I would want to know how that's done, when one is in C1.

Of course, but if I got it right the NAS doesn't delete the files when so ordered by C1.
I asked you to prove that the C1 NAS user can delete a file using the NAS' web interface. If delete works, the next step is to spend energy on finding out why the very same NAS user can not delete a file via the network file sharing protocol. If delete doesn't work via the browser, C1 is not part of the problem.
You did not answer all the questions, and I will stop here. Other users may be able to help you based on the information you have provided.
