Cannot Upload Avatar -Error- (unable to create directory)
-
Hello Folks,
I just installed Buddy Press today.
When I try to upload an avatar, I get this error:
Upload Failed! Error was: Unable to create directory /avatars/1. Is its parent directory writable by the server?
I’m thinking this is a CHMOD / Permissions issue but I’m not sure which directories need to be re-written with new permissions.

3. If a directory install, is it in root or in a subdirectory? root
4. Did you upgraded from a previous version of WP/MU? If so, from which version? no clean install

11. Do you have any custom functions in bp-custom.php? no
