I noticed this while setting up a WordPress (build 2.9.1) blog on a SUSE 10.3 Linux Server running PHP 5.2.5.
I encountered the following error when uploading or installing a plugin from the Add new section:
Could not create directory. /[WordPress Root]/wp-content/plugins/[My Plugin]/
I reviewed my file permissions and they appeared to be correct. I then proceeded to take a look at WordPress' wp-filesystem manager.
Looking at the file: [WordPress Root]/wp-admin/includes/class-wp-filesystem-direct.php, It appears that the path value being sent to the mkdir method contains a trailing slash, which is causing @mkdir to barf.
This is a bug reported in php 5.2.5 (http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=42739)
Best advice is to upgrade to the latest version of PHP.
However, if you are not in a position to upgrade, you can add the following line to the start of the mkdir method in the file [WordPress Root]/wp-admin/includes/class-wp-filesystem-direct.php
$path = preg_replace('(/$)', '', $path);
This will allow WordPress to bypass the PHP Bug.

I have just downloaded the latest daily build and they have fixed the trailing slash issue but this still happen on my server.
If I create the upgrade directory myself and set the permission to full I then get.
Could not create directory. /user/htdocs/blog/wp-content/upgrade/wordpress-importer.tmp
Help please.
This fix didn't work for me. I am running a ubuntu system with the newest everything including php installed today. no joy here.
Every state keeps official records of all lawyers admitted to practice in that state. They are either kept by the State Supreme Court, the Board of Bar Overseers, or the state Bar Association. These records would not list whether they are real estate lawyers.

Meats and certain dairy products are cool. chicken breasts are great, cottage cheese, steak, turkey bacon, lowfat cheese, eggs, whey and or soy protien powder, thats about all i can think of right now but it should get you started.
I solved it by deleting the folder and re-installing the plugin

Thank you for the very interesting article, I am new to the world of websites and SEO and alot of articles I have read before talk of backlinks and more backlinks and some of them pretty underhand ways to get them,I have always thought when I started out to create a website that content must be the most important element as if people dont like the content of a site they will move on instantly however optimized for search engines it is.

If it's a Bash script, then just use the mkdir command. Type man mkdir for more information on that.

im guessing thats the University of the Pacific. the dental school for there is the Dugoni School of Dentistry, and it takes 4 years to be a general dentist. But i believe this is one of the only schools that you can get your DDS degree in 3 years

How do i create a directory in Linux through scripting, I am not sure on what all needs put there!
Great Post! Thanks for taking the time to share.
I live in Derby, am looking for a new past time to meet people. The local Playhouse is bankrupt, or I would have tried there.
I am writing a program that stores data files and I want to create the directory that the files will be stored in. How do I do that?
What happens when a directory is added and what are the security implications?
It's gonna work fine on both Windows and Linux platforms . The only difference between these two while including a file is that file names are case sensetive in Linux . Suppose your file name is "MYfIlE.phP" and you're running your code on a Linux machine ,then your code must be like this :
i would stay away from a window server, too many compatibility issues, you need to be on a LINUX server and running php 5

Good luck getting an immediate response. I hate that system. Thirteen hours for Total War Shogun 2 to load before playing. Despite having an account and another Total War game installed.
It was very useful for me. Keep sharing such ideas in the future as well. This was actually what I was looking for, and I am glad to came here! Thanks for sharing such a information with us.
Create a folder tree. Wen you have to make a project tree, make the top folder for the project, then copy the top folder from your tree and paste it into the project folder.
