    Hi, got everything working on a local server no probs… loaded onto live server and now cannot Add Gallery. SAFE-MODE is on and cannot change this. I have manually added a gallery directory with permissions 777, so now when I Add Gallery I get…

    Unable to create directory wp-content/gallery/old-photos!
    Directory wp-content/gallery/old-photos is not writeable !
    Unable to create directory wp-content/gallery/old-photos/thumbs !

    I then created these corresponding directories and tried again only to get an error saying it still could not create the directories (probally because they already existed).

    No new gallery is added to the list in NextGEN in either case.

    After checking the ownership I find that the gallery directory is owned by www-data in group www-data. Is this correct? if not what should the owner and group be?

    Surely this should not be this tricky!!! At the moment I cannot use the NextGEN Gallery at all because I have no pictures!

    Please point me in the right direction for solving this problem.
