[Bug]: Site deletion fails due to "Permission denied" errors and Execution Timeout

[erhanurgun]

Installation Type *

VPS

Vito Version *

3.18.0

Describe the Bug *

When I try to delete a website from the panel, the process hangs for about 1-2 minutes and then crashes with a 500 Internal Server Error (Maximum execution time exceeded).

The logs indicate that the system does not have permission to remove certain files (e.g., .git objects, node_modules, vendor files), causing the deletion script to hang and eventually timeout.

Steps to Reproduce *

1. Open a Site dashboard.
2. Go to the Settings tab.
3. Click on the "Delete site" button.
4. Observe that the spinner loads for a long time and eventually throws a 500 Fatal Error.

Expected Behavior *

The site and its associated files should be deleted successfully and quickly without permission errors.

Additional Context

I suspect some files (like .git or node_modules) might have been created with different ownership (e.g., root) during deployment or manual intervention, causing Vito's user to fail during deletion.

Workaround: I had to manually delete the project folder via SSH (rm -rf ...), which worked instantly and updated the Vito dashboard state.

# The permissions were as follows:
sudo chown -R vito:vito /home/vito/sitename.com
