If I use "Remove and Delete Data", the plugin removes the files being seeded but not the directory that they are in (if they are in a sub-directory of my Download Directory).

1. Is that the correct result?
2. Is it possible to have the plugin delete the directory also; rather than leaving many empty directories in my main Download Directory?

It should remove the entire folder, UNLESS there is another file in that folder that didnt get created from that torrent

I'm currently experiencing the same issue.

Last week i upgraded to ruTorrent v3.2 (from v3.1) and the plugin EraseData started to leave empty directories.
With v3.1 everything worked perfectly.

Any idea how i can fix this?

ps: sorry for my terrible English

Unfortunately this is a known problem ;-/
I also have this for a long time on 1 server (freebsd)
And on the other server there is no problem (Other OS)

Problem solved; it wasn't a permissions problem, something way more stupid...
I've stopped and restarted rtorrent and now it works correctly.

Bye

Do you mind telling how you fixed this? I still get empty directories left my my rutorrent 3.2 setup.

Restarting rtorrent did nothing and all my permissions are ok.

Thanks,
