Can’t load new images with 6.1.1

    Hello:

    I updated two of my sites to 6.1.1. Now when I try to add new images I get this message “Unable to create directory uploads/2022/12. Is its parent directory writable by the server?”

    I deactivated all the newly updated plug-ins. These do not seem to be the problem. I tested the media library on my third site, which I did not update to the latest WP version. It works fine.

    I am using Windows 10.

    I looked for this topic in the forum, but I did not find it, so I am posting it here. Can anyone help me with a solution?

    Thank you.
    TGC

    Hi, are you hosting the site yourself? You should have a look into the file permissions like the error message says

    No, I am not hosting the site myself. And I have no idea what the message means. I don’t know if the parent directory is writable by the server.

    Hi,
    do you have access to the filesystem? If so when you access it you should see a field with the owner and group of the folder, then in another field the permissions, it should look somewhat like this 644 or rw-r–r–, not those exact numbers and letters but similar.
    If you find this tell me those values of the parent folder of /uploads/ down to /2022/ and /12/
