WordPress – Is its parent directory writable by the server?

Worpdress Error - Is its parent directory writable by the server?  while trying to upload images in wordpress

Solution

Wordpress image upload failed

Check under Settings > Media for correct Store Uploads in the folder path.

It should look like wp-contents/uploads (not /wp-contents/uploads)

I had the same error while trying the upload the above image after moving to VPS.net cloud hosting.

If above solution fails, check the folder permission for uploads folder. It should be 775 or 777 (not safe)
