Want to delete a directory on a Unix-Webserver

Hi folks,

I want to delete a folder on my webserver via ftp, but the server said "Operation not permitted".
So I want to delete the folder via ssh - not successfull.
This is what I have done and what the server said:

---------------------------
Code:
rmdir views

rmdir: views: Directory not empty

cd views
ls -l

total 0

ls -a

. ..

ls -a -l

total 0
drwxrwxrwx 3 [username] ftpusers  6 Dec 25 14:21
drwxrwxrwx 3 [username] ftpusers 18 Dec 25 14:21

--------------------------

The folder "views" is empty, isnt it?
What can I do?

Hope someone can help..

Greetings,
Joe
