Question
File could not be moved - WordPress
Hello,
I’m having problems to set permissions to WordPress’ upload path. I always get this message: “Uploaded file could not be moved to wp-content/uploads”.
Nginx and php-fpm are running under www-data user. Here is my ls -la output from /var/www/html folder:
drwxrwxr-x 8 www-data www-data 4096 Nov 20 14:25 .
drwxrwxr-x 5 www-data www-data 4096 Jan 26 20:41 ..
-rwxrwxr-x 1 www-data www-data 28 Jan 8 2012 index.php
drwxrwxr-x 4 www-data www-data 4096 Aug 6 16:16 languages
drwxrwxr-x 7 www-data www-data 4096 Jan 18 13:40 plugins
drwxrwxr-x 7 www-data www-data 4096 Jan 18 13:40 themes
drwxrwxr-x 2 www-data www-data 4096 Nov 20 14:25 upgrade
drwxrwxr-x 5 www-data www-data 4096 Jan 1 23:57 uploads
What possibiliy can be wrong?
Thanks,
Vinícius

have you tried this:
and then:
Tried this with no success. :/
Nothing relevant in the logs either…
Hmm..Are you sure your website is located in /var/www/html
Could it be in another location, even /var/www
You could try this to be sure:
OMG, you nailed it. My root path is the default /usr/share/nginx/html.
I was pretty sure I’ve changed that. Such a noob mistake.
Thank you a lot!
