I cannot move my attachments into file system and I need some help.

I have a dedicated linux server with 5 domains hosted on it. the path to my forum is:

/var/www/vhosts/travel-talk.info/httpdocs/

I have created a folder named "attachments" inside the /httpdocs/ folder , chmodded it to 777 and still I cannot move the files there.

Your path is:

/var/www/vhosts/travel-talk.info/httpdocs/attachments

CHMOD 777

Some servers do not allow 777, Try 755

Please note that for security it is best to place your attachment directory above your webroot (httpdocs). If it is placed under the webroot, anyone can direct download the attachments, bypassing vBulletin permission system.
