Are you trying to change back the permission as root via SSH? What does chmod 644 foldername do?

Yes, am using toot access

How were you attempting to change permissions? If you were doing so through the UI in cPanel's file manager you wouldn't have root permissions. You'd need to change this to the standard permissions using the the CLI

chmod 755 directoryname

Can you send me the output from following "ls -al" and "lsattr"?

lsattr is where it's going to be I'll bet this file is immutable
