“Unable to create directory…” error in WordPress
I moved my WordPress site to another host. After the moving, I had an error:
Unable to create directory /hsphere/local/home/infous/starikovs.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09. Is its parent directory writable by the server?
The first idea I had was about folders or files permissions. I changed the permissions but an error sill was there. After I googled some time I found that there’s a setting that sets the uploading path. I changed this setting and an uploading started to work OK!
To change an uploading path go to:
wp-admin -> Settings -> Miscellaneous -> Store uploads in this folder, and set the correct path. I chose the default folder wp-content/uploads and it works well in my case.

In case that someone land here just like me:
I’ve been very stressed with this.
I searched a lot and nothing worked for me but now I figure it out! (At least for me)
Try this if none of the previous solutions worked for you:
1 -Go to PHP MY ADMIN to see your DB where do you have WordPress installed.
2 – At the top, click in the two tools, in english will be something like “OPTIONS” or “OPERATIONS”.
3 – select the AUTO INCREMENT and save/execute.
