Hi,

• Update to 13.6. : done
• The file user_list_backend.php is still there even if it is an empty file
  Why the file is not deleted?
  What is the reason?

 find . -name user_list_backend.php -ls
  1177265      0 -rwxr-xr-x   1 www-data www-data        0 Feb 24 10:54 ./admin/user_list_backend.php

In fact I found a lot of files with zero size:

Why the file is not deleted? What is the reason?

On Piwigo 14 the file will be deleted. On Piwigo 13 we can't delete it because the minor upgrade system can no longer delete files. That's a security limit we have recently added, to avoid unwanted deletions. See https://piwigo.org/forum/viewtopic.php?pid=185219#p185219 for in-depth details.

As I couldn't have this file deleted, I made it empty. It fixes the problem. The file will be deleted when upgrading to Piwigo 14.

In fact I found a lot of files with zero size:

and it doesn't mean it's a problem :-) It makes perfect sense to me.
