   My first post "Can't install wordpress" was resolve by an unknow power... I tried the installation from IE and not from Mozilla btw...
   Now i have a problem : the upload action said to me that everything was successfully uploaded but there's nothing on the path, and my post naturally do not contain the picture.
   I tried to change the option of the folder on my FTP but the server doesn't want to know anything.
   There's 2 settings in the configuration of wordpress :
   - fileupload_realpath
   and
   - fileupload_url
   What must i wrote in these sections, knowing that my website is from the form : "mysite.myisp.fr",
   and the path where i want the pictures to be stored is "mysite.myisp.fr/images"?
   Thanks a lot.

   for me realpath is
   /home/lilandra/public_html/wpress/images
   and url is
   http://lilyanddragon.com/wpress/images
   so your url is probably http://mysite.myisp.fr/images
   i don't know about your realpath but maybe
   /home/username/public_html/images
   where username is your username to login to ur host?
   i'm just guessing

   Lilandra is correct.
   To get the full, true, real path, consult your web hosting provider.

   Grab this:
   http://www.tamba2.org.uk/downloads/absolutepath.zip
   Unzip it.
   Upload the php file to the directory where you want your images to go.
   Call the file in your browser - http://www.example.com/images/absolutepath.php
   That will give the details you need.

   the first path is an absolute server path
   something like
   /www/yoursitefolder/wordpress/images
   the next one is a web url like
   http://www.yourwebsite.com/wordpress/images
   hope this helps
   for anyone who may still be having troubles remove the last trailing slash so it' s like this
   /www/yoursitefolder/wordpress/images
   instead of
   /www/yoursitefolder/wordpress/images/
   that had me messed up for a looooooooooong time
   peace
