I'm having problems with file permission.
While trying to upload an image to a folder on my home server and I'm getting the following error:
Unable to create directory /home/insub2/Websites/Good Morning rEvolution/wp-content/uploads. Is its parent directory writable by the server?
Trying to get the AmR iCal Event List plugin to work, I get this error:
Error creating cache directory (/home/insub2/Websites/Good Morning rEvolution/wp-content/uploads/ical-events-cache/)
HOWEVER!!!
The root directory and every sub-directory/file is set to 777. And both the wp-config.php and .htaccess files were created with no issue.

try creating the folder 'uploads' in your wp-content folder. and set the perms to 777
Already did that. Did the whole uploads/2009/06/ thang too. No joy.
Even tried switching the owner and group to www-data (which is the owner and group of the WP created .htaccess file). No joy.
I had switch the spaces to underscores in the directory holding WP and thought I had made all the appropriate changes to WP. But, alas, there was one more thing. Settings -> Miscellaneous -> Store Uploads in this folder. So it was trying to create a new directory in my web root--which is not writable by anyone but me.
All is well now. Thank you for your help.
