But now, every time i want to rename the uploads directory, I cant, i get the following error:

Not valid
upload_dir : /files/uploads
Cannot access/create directory /media/usrupl [/home/server/public/files/uploads]

That folder is there, it has CHMOD 777, but it can't be accessed, i even deleted my htaccess file and tried again, but no luck. O.o

Any thoughts?

Thanks! ^^,

I'm surprised by that error - as far as I can tell from the code, it should say Cannot access/create directory /files/uploads [/home/server/public/files/uploads]

try doing it in several steps. clear the upload_dir field and submit. then clear the local_file_root and local_file_root_prefix settings and submit. then reset the local_file_root and local_file_root_prefix settings the way you want them. then reset upload_dir.

Are you sure that your upload_dir is where you think it is, i.e. a subdirectory of /home/server/public?
