I've noticed that if a notebook that is published is then deleted by
its owner, then it remains under the published notebooks in the server
with the owner now set as 'pub'. The interesting thing is that the
'admin' account can not see or delete this notebook (although it can
be deleted if you have shell access).

Is this a bug?

This first happened to me with http://www.sagenb.org/home/pub/1467 --
so if someone with admin access to the server is reading this, I would
appreciated this duplicate notebook being removed from the list of
published notebooks!

Thanks,
Simon

I'm experiencing the same on another notebook server. Any pointers on
how to remove worksheets owned by 'pub' would be appreciated.

Regards,
Paul

I've removed the offending published worksheet by deleting the folder
(SAGE_HOME.sagenb/home/pub/xx). I was still able to view the deleted
sheet on the notebook server until Sage was restarted.

I think the set of worksheets that user foo has in a notebook is
*completely determined* by the set of directories under <sage notebook
root>/home/foo. However, as you observed, one has to restart the
notebook server before this directory structure is reread.

Hi Paul,

That's what I did too. But it's not really an option on www.sagenb.org.
