I haven't run this on Unix myself, but I think this answer might be 
useful.  Someone please correct me if I'm out to lunch.

Check which user account is actually running the PHP process (or the Apache 
process if it's not the CGI).  Then ensure that it (the PHP user) has the 
rights to create files in the specified directory.

Be careful here though, because you will be giving malicious visitors more 
tools to work with.

Cheers,
