    Unable to create directory /home/a4108860/public_html/wp-content/uploads/2011/02. Is its parent directory writable by the server?

    I have looked through so many of the topics, but similar questions seem to be resolved by changing the settings in Media section. I do not have the folder "wp-content/uploads". Or am I being a total newb here. I tried to create it manually in the SQL but there were too many boxes that need filled and I dont know how to. I hope I have just a simple misunderstanding and that it can be easily fixed. Please!

    Try changing the permissions on the wp-content directory to 766. If you still have problems, try 767, 775 or 777. Once your uploads are working, change the permissions on wp-content back to 755 again and check that everything still works OK.
