Finally, wordpress is installed and almost all plug-ins are up. Trying to post an image threw up a cryptic error message

“The uploaded file could not be moved to…”

Looks like the default installation path for “Store uploads in this folder” is set as “"wp-content". Here’s what is need to fix this:

• Change the value from  “"wp-content" to “wp-content/upLoads"
• Create a directory called "upLoads" under the directory “wp-content". Note that the folder names are case sensitive.
• Assign World  ‘Read/Write/Execute’ permission (i.e: 0×777) for the new directory. 0×666 (Just Read/Write) doesn’t seem to cut it.

That should do it.
