Im new so if I make incorrect question, just help with how make it more good in future.

When upload a file give error back

Element FILENAME_INV is undefined in FORM.

Solution 1

You can try

rm some-files-with-numbers{0..300}

This will delete:

some-files-with-numbers0

some-files-with-numbers1

some-files-with-numbers2

...

some-files-with-numbers300

Solution 2

I like superuser’s answer, but to add another possibility:

find . -regex './some-files-with-numbers[123]?[0-9]?[0-9]' -delete

If you want to write a good question (which in turn will help you receive more help), I would suggest you read: stackoverflow.com/help/mcve

Start with dumping form scope to see whether the element is available?

thank you very much, I will

What about some-files-with-numbers301?

@cYrus I am aware of the limitations :) My answer was more aimed at being an alternative to superuser’s one.
