Follow the same pattern as above in your favorite FTP client to fix the folder permissions on the other folders. Check out Joomla's manual/README for further information on which directories need to be readable/writable (and chmoded by you).

I believe not only is /media needing 777 permissions, but also more directories. Follow the same pattern as above in your favorite FTP client to fix the folder permissions on the other folders.

Check out Joomla’s manual/README for further information on which directories need to be readable/writable (and chmoded by you).
