upload directories killing me

[Tylee]

I have tried every combination know help!!
This is what I have specified:

$upload_relative_url = 'uploads/';

$upload_directory = '/home/mysite/program_files/uploads/';

Any and all combinations gives me "An error occurred when uploading a file."

dadabik folder does not exisit - I loaded just the program_files on down.

thanks,

Is the directory writable? If this is a unix/linux server, at the command prompt:
$ chmod 0777 /home/mysite/program_files/uploads

Or your FTP program might be able to do it by right clicking on the directory name. FileZilla and SmartFTP can do that, at least...
