 * I had the same thing happen to me!!!
 * I can’t seem to fix it though…

 * ¡¡Solved!!
 * I do not have the same problem before updating to wordpress-2.2.1, and now I 
   know what was the problem.
 * The dirs in wordpress/wp-content/uploads has to be owned by cherokee in my case.
 * Change to wordpress/wp-content/uploads directory and do:
 * # chown -R cherokee:cherokee *

 * Hi Juan,
 * I encounter the same problem you described.
    You’re the lucky one because you
   solved it. I still have it. I try to change the owner of the dir, not by # chwon,
   but via a GUI, but the result is the same. Cherokee, is that your Webserver?
 * Regards,
 * Rob

 * Yes, Cherokee is the webserver.
