A system administrator must do these -- regular users don't have permission. (These instructions are for 3.0.1 -- your mileage may vary) Is your server running SELinux? Check: /usr/sbin/getenforce If the answer is "Enforcing", keep reading. 1) change to the base directory of your WP files. In the example above: cd /home/.boogee/cyriac/cyriac.me 2) allow media-upload.php to execute mkdir: chcon -t httpd_sys_script_exec_t wp-admin/media-upload.php 3) allow reading and writing of files in the uploads directory: chcon -Rt httpd_sys_script_rw_t wp-content/uploads That'll do it.
