"The upload path does not appear to be valid" (PULLING MY HAIR OUT !!!!) [SOLVED]

Have your tried to

Code:

var_dump(is_dir('/upload/'));

to see, if PHP can access the directory on the server?

Is this a shared server, then I don't think that '/upload/' is the correct path. Using

Code:

var_dump($_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME']);

you can find out the "real" path to your script - and thus to your "upload"-dir.
