I am trying to delete uploaded phone logos. System is on Lightsail. I connected in via WinSCP through putty and went to /Interface/provisioning//logo/customlogo. When I delete from there I get access denied logged in as admin.

Is there a way to remove them from the web admin interface?

Thanks, J
 
I don't recommend that you remove them....

That said, you'll need elevated permission. Admin is just a user with access to raised privileges. To do so, add "sudo" in front of the command.

For example:

sudo rm thisfile.png

With the elevated privileges, the system won't care if you're a member of the user/group assigned to the file and/or directory. BE CAREFUL. You can completely mess up your system by deleting things you ought not delete...
 
The issue was it wasn't uploading a new version of the logo with the same name so I uploaded 4 versions testing it out on one phone to get the location of the logo correct. So now I have logo1, logo2, logo3 and logo4 in the drop down and no way to get rid of the wrong versions.
 
To get elevated permission in WinSCP you need to (before logging in) press the advanced button and change the following setting:
