FCK Editor Error when trying to upload images

[mattb348]

I started using fck editor and I love it, but there is one problem with it that I am having.

 

When I go to add an image using fck, if I try to upload a picture or even "browse server for images", it gives me this error:

 

"error creating folder "userfiles/../images/" (permission denied)

 

I don't have a "catalog" DIR; I just have all of the files in my root directory (IE: my whole site is reached just by going to www.mysite.com)

 

Any ideas? I set the permissions to my "images" folder (in the root DIR) to 777 as per the fck installation instructions provided here.

It gives me the same error when I try to "browse the server" for images u sing this testing feature of fckeditor...... :(

I set the permissions to my "images" folder (in the root DIR) to 777 as per the fck installation instructions provided here.

That is a HUGE mistake.

 

YOU WILL GET HACKED.

 

It's only a question of when, and how bad will it be.

No web accessible folder should have permission higher than 755
