I am very new to wordpress.When I wanted to upload new picture,videos then I get the following error:
Unable to create directory /home/nipon/public_html/wp-content/blogs.dir/1/files. Is its parent directory writable by the server?
my sever is running on linux .Please help me where I have to change the permissions.
go into the wp-content directory and make sure that the blogs.dir is writeable by your apache user.

hello SteveAtty,
I have checked it .It has permission 755.it is writable by user.will i have to change it
Is the owner of the directory the apache user? if not then is the group of the directory the group the apache user is in? If so then chmod 775.
Failing that chmod 777

Talk to your hosting company - they should be able to tell you how to do it.
