I just checked the permission of that particular folder, it’s on 775, tried putting it on 777 but I get this error:
Status: Set permissions of ‘/wp-content/uploads/2015/10’ to ‘777’
Command: SITE CHMOD 777 10
Response: 550 CHMOD 777 10: Operation not permitted
How to fix this? Contact hosting?
Edit:
Seems like I solved it, for some reason the FTP has 2 addresses (don’t ask me) on 1 I cannot change the permissions but on the other I can.
Earlier today I couldn’t install plugins through WP, had to download them and move them to the FTP manually, also updating kept going forever.
To my surprise the error to uploading media has changed into: The uploaded file could not be moved to wp-content/uploads/2015/10.
When trying to install a plugin I get this error: Unable to locate WordPress Content directory (wp-content).
My guess would be that it’s because the WP folders aren’t in the root of the FTP.
