delete() returns a boolean; you should always check it to be true, since
otherwise you cannot be sure the file was deleted. Something like:
if (!file.delete())
{
throw new Exception ("File couldn't be deleted!");
}

I had a similar problema on Win2000. The files still cannot be deleted, so
I don't know what I should do -- theoretically, it shouldn't be a
permission-related problem since I do it from within a servlet. The same
code on Solaris works fine.
Now, if you're on Unix, then check it's not a directory full of things,
you have permissions, etc.
Cheers,
Alex.
