Try putting a print statement in there e.g

PRINT "rm " &  application.Path & "/imagenes/*.*"


copy the terminal output from this into a real linux terminal and see what 
error message you get.

or  try your exact command out first in a terminal before putting it into a 
gambas string.  Also check the file permissions on the files in that 
directory.

Just a suggestion in case you've not tried it.
