user permissions question
I have an application where in a user uploads files into a directory that has a collection of image files, as well as a text file that is read by a web script later. The script imports the text file data into a database, then copies the image files to a secure location. Ideally it should remove the images once they have been transferred to the secure location. The question here is the user that uploads the files and the webserver running the script are in the same group, but I cannot remove the files that have been uploaded. Any thoughts here would be appreciated.

FILES

This is the script to be run by the bug reporting program for generating a bug report template. This file is installed as

package to the Debian Bug Tracking System. This file is installed as usr/share/bug/package/presubj in the package build directory.
