    we had recently moved our server from an lighthttpd – kloxo interface to apache – cpanel interface

    the blog loads good and every thing is fine from viewing end.

    But, from the admin end it isn’t rite.
    When, tried to upgrade the plugins it was asking hostname and ftp logins, it never asked before when we were on old interface, the problem here was, I tried to upgrade 2 plugins and both times it asked for the logins. I don’t usually carry the ftp pwds always with me so it can be quite troublesome at times. [b]It took much longer than it usually takes to even upgrade the add-on[/b]

    Then, [b]the next problem was the image upload problem. When tried to upload it threw following error msg:[/b]

    The uploaded file could not be moved to /home/dbs/public_html/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/09.
    I had changed the file upload location in wp-admin from /home/admin/dbs/blog/wp-content/uploads to /home/dbs/public_html/blog/wp-content/uploads
    It had 755 permission, so I set the folder permission to 777 for uploads, but still I got this error msg,

    don’t know why this is happening, need help to overcome the problem

    Hi,

    Check with these options:

    -> Disable all the plugins and enable it one by one to find out the culprit.
    -> make sure that you have set proper upload path from wordpress admin area -> settings -> miscellaneous settings.
    -> Remove all unwanted code from htaccess

    Thanks,

    Shane G.

    Also, check if your /tmp folder has full permissions.

    hi,

    thanks for the suggestions
    I had disabled all plugins and tried to upload still the same problem repeated.

    The hataccess had just this:
    Options All -Indexes

    The wp-content folder had 755 permissions, uploads had 755 as well

    should the uploaded images be given 755 permission as well, as I find the images to be with 644 permissions

    There is no tmp folder on the server.

    not to mention there is a blank htaccess file in the site root folder, ie. public_html but its a blank one as well
