instead of
Code:
$config[‘upload_path’] = $baseLoc.“assets/Lessons/”;do
Code:
$config[‘upload_path’] = “./assets/Lessons/”;file upload controller - El Forum - 02-13-2010

"./assets/Lessons/" on what directory would this go??
my DIR looks like this:
www
-codeigniter
-assets
| -Lessons <-- i want to put the files here
-System
-Application
and so on

'./assets/Lessons/' is the absolute path, it will upload the files exactly where you want them. Without trying and testing the code, you wont learn much

Btw check if your map has enough rights to upload into it
