Ok,
Im trying to deploy my first blog with wordpress. Everything is good so far, but when I try to add a post/upload an image, it gives me...
"Unable to create directory. Is its parent directory writable by the server?"
I left the actual url string out for now. Anyway, I SSH'ed into that machine, navigated to the parent directory... (wp-content needs to be writable) and I ran the command:
chmod 775 wp-content -R
The permissions changed on the directory to "w" like I thought it should be, but it still throws an error when trying to create directories and write files through wordpress. Anyone got 2 cents worth of ideas?
Thanks
