Yes, even including the !
```
Directory /usr/home/mblanc/htdocs is not writeable !
Check this link, if you didn't know how to set the permission : http://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_File_Permissions
```
I have changed the ownership of htdocs (the root directory) to user nobody, the user running apache, and it now works. That is unusual as WordPress otherwise runs quite happily with the root directory owned by the FTP user.

Thanks @tizz

I guess I am wondering why the message points out a permission problem in the root directory rather than the wp-content/gallery directory.

If I make the root directory owned by the user running apache (nobody), or chown 777, I can create a new gallery in wp-content/gallery

I can’t see that NextGEN has modified any files in the root directory

Why does NextGEN check for write access to the root directory?

(Using WordPress 4.0 and NextGEN Version 2.0.66.29 on self-hosted FeeBSD server)
