I am a new user of Ubuntu 12.04 64 bit and I want to test WordPress on my local PC installation. I've only installed LAMP and the latest version of WordPress for now. Further actions were
- creating a directory
www
in/home
, i.e/home/www
- install wordpress in it.
- changed Apache to use
/home/www
instead of/var/www
Apache is running smoothly & wordpress seems to be so as well. However, if try to change my background of my wordpress blog it throws an error
Unable to create directory wp-content/uploads/2012/12. Is its parent directory writable by the server?
Plese help me to resolve my problem.
