@delvinggeeks Looks like it's not an UI bug. It was fixed here: https://github.com/mainflux/mainflux/pull/1220
Please, pull latest core services and try again. If it still don't work open an issue in mainflux/mainflux repo.

Hi @manuio . I have made a diff compare between ui docker-compose file and mainflux docker-compose file logically i dont see any major change. The above problem arises only with ui component but with mainflux either using cli or curl we can delete thing without any problem
