[Edward Potter]

On these kind of bugs, u can try to become the user your web server 
runs as (maybe 'nobody?' if u don't have a shell account for that user, 
u can sudo nobody from root). Then try to move around in the 
directories, and save files at various points along the path.  May help 
find your bug.
