Hi,
I was trying to change my slider image on my magento via its admin panel, but when i tried to upload new image it gave me this error message: “The directory /var/www/html/magento/media/wysiwyg/blanco is not writable by server.”
The thing is - I can upload it via filezilla and insert URL, but for some reason I can’t do so via Magento admin panel - why?
Maybe i need to change somewhere access/permission? If so - how?
Thanks

Check if that folder exists and whether it has write permissions – 777. 2 The solution is to change just one setting in admin: System -> Configuration -> General -> Content Management -> Use Static URLs for Media Content in WYSIWYG for Catalog to Yes Dont forget to clear the caches when you are done!
The Flash Upload doesn’t handle invalid or self-signed certificates. It just throws an error, therefore you have two possibilities:
Is also gives me this error when I try to upload via admin:
