 * I also had the same problem after installing WordPress 2.7. Solved the problem
   as follows:
    1. Create a folders in ‘wp-admin’ ‘wp-content/uploads’ 2. Open wp-
   includes/functions.php and replace
 *     ```
       function path_is_absolute( $path ) {
       	// this is definitive if true but fails if $path does not exist or contains a symbolic link
       	if ( realpath($path) == $path )
       		return true;
       ```
   
 * with
 *     ```
       function path_is_absolute( $path ) {
       	// this is definitive if true but fails if $path does not exist or contains a symbolic link
       	if ( realpath($path) != $path )
       		$path == realpath($path);
       	else
       		return true;
       ```
   
 * That’s all! All files will now be filled in wp-content/uploads. Enjoy!
