I am a newbie to PHP and MySql so please be gentle with me..

I have installed PHPMyWebsite and it seems to be running ok ish.... I am having problems getting it to upload images.. Everytime I try to upload and image to include in one of my pages I get an error see below...

ERROR
A problem occured when attempting to upload your image.
If the problem persists, contact your system administrator.

This is not very helpful because I am the Administrator, I have contacted myself on several occassions but without any success.. :-)

Maybe I am stupid? I cannot understand what is causing the problem.. I have checked the images directory exists, have changed permissions on it too 777, I have looked countless times in config.php but can't see anything blindingly obvious in there..

I have also installed the Gallery plugin that everyone keeps raving about and I even get a similar error in that too.. It wont let me create a gallery...

I have absolutely no experience of MYSQL and my site is running on a IPSs server so I do not have shell priveledges on the box that MYSQL DB runs.

Is there something I should be doing with the MYSQL bit? If so What and how?

Please help me I am at my wits end..

Many Thanks..

John
