×Are you using php?
could you post the bit of code that you are using to upload.
Whats in the apache error log
Yes i am using Wordpress. When i upload file error message “ Unable to create directory uploads/2015/05. Is its parent directory writable by the server?”
I am taking a guess at your folder structure here so it may need changing to whatever you have,
Try.
chmod -R 777 /var/www/wp-content/
then run
ls -al /var/www/wp-content/
if you see something like this (Mainly the drwxrwxrwx) that will tell you if there is sufficient access
drwxrwxrwx 4 nginx nginx 4096 Apr 30 12:22 uploads
Here is result but i still can’t upload file
drwxrwxrwx 8 nginx nginx 4096 May 2 04:22 uploads
Are is there anything in the folder uploads already?
i would check the nginx logs.
/var/log/nginx/nginx_error.log
Here is error log file .

There is nothing in the log about file uploads or permissions so its hard to see where your error is coming from.
Although the log does mention that the structure of the files being used is,
/usr/share/nginx/html/
and not
/var/www/
