First I would double-check that the volume is not in read-only status.

Log in as root, using the admin password.
Then list the snapshots for the share with
# btrfs subvolume list -s /data | grep SHARENAME
substituting the real sharename for the placeholder of course.
Then try deleting them one at a time using
# btrfs subvolume delete -c <path>
Where <path> is the full path to the snapshot - something like /data/SHARENAME/.snapshot/NUMBER/snapshot
Note the first command won't include the /data/ bit, but the second command definitely needs it.
After the snapshots are sucessfully deleted, delete the main share from the admin web ui. If you get an error deleting a snapshot, then post it here.
