What is the error message?
What is the file name / type?
"If a man talks in the woods and no woman hears him, is he still wrong?"

1. This is the error it gave me.

2: move_uploaded_file(/usr/local/www/ofpec/yabbse/attachments/wall.zip): failed to open stream: Permission denied
(/usr/local/www/ofpec/yabbse/Sources/Post.php ln 886)

2. The file is a zip less than 50kb
Path is C:\wall.zip

I noticed at somepoint many places had problems with access rights. I assumed 'something happened' and it was fixed. Based on that error message the YaBB attachments folder is one place where the access rights have not been fixed.
I'm just talking outloud, based on nothing.  :)
Not all is lost.

Try again now, gadolinite...

HuBBa's given the server a "gentle slap" with the "Mr Fix-It" sledgehammer. ;)
