I have a great deal of flash content on my site, and I have so far been able to upload all of it without any troubles at all. But I have one file that it simply won't let me upload. It keeps giving me this error:

Upload Status mv: cannot create regular file `/xxxx/xxxxxxx/public_html/web seven.swf': Permission denied web seven.swf (web seven.swf): upload failed.

(I put the "x"s in because I am new to this and I don't know what is supposed to be secret)

Anyway, has anyone else encountered this before?

Maybe it's because of the space put in the file name? :ask:

And, it's okay to put the /home/, in the file path since everyone has that. Though, your username might want to be kept secret, that's all up to you.

2 tips that everyone should follow,

1. never use spaces- if you insist on using them you need to replace the space with %20 in the URL

2. Use lower case.
