   I know this is Just Another Image Uploader Problem thread.

   The uploaded file could not be moved to /var/www/vhosts/domain.com/httpdocs/wp/wp-content/uploads.

   etc

   I have to chmod many directories to 777 to get uploads to work, so I chown'ed wp-content/uploads to apache:apache, which is what WP-created files get as owner:group (like wp-config.php).

   No dice.

   So I chmod'ed it to 777.

   No dice.

   So what we have is the server trying to write a file to a 777 directory it owns, and it can't.

   Why?

   Sorry, this needs a bump. I think about this way too often. It's not healthy.

   This is so against logic. Can someone out there help me sleep better at night?

   Yep.

   wp-content/uploads 777

   have you tried some simple php upload script to test if the problem is just with your wordpress installation? If a simple php uploader wont work the problem has to be with the server.
