When the /tmp directory does not exist, the status report generates an error for the Image module stating:

Status Report:
Image module directories Missing temp directory
The image module's temp directory images/temp is missing.

The error is resolved by creating the /tmp directory. (See http://drupal.org/node/242814)

[NOTE: I'm using the Update module that ships with Drupal 6.1 -- which does not seem to be an available choice on the bug issue submission form for this project at the moment, so the version classification here may be wrong.]

I don't know if this is fixed or not. I have tried everything mentioned in forums after using the search term 'The image module's image directory is missing.' and nothing has worked.

I am testing on my MBP running Leopard, Apached 2.2 PHP 5.26 MySQL 5.0.1a

My test site is located at in my Sites folder and can be accessed through the browser at http://localhost/~Cory/drupal-6.4

I have created the images directory and images/import and images/tmp and images/temp changed the permission to in the finder so Everyone can read & write. Nothing.
I have changed the path under Site Configuration >> Images to:

images did not work
/images did not work
files/images did not work
default/flles/images did not work
sites/default/images did not work
drupal-6.4/sites/default/images did not work
http://localhost/~Cory/drupal-6.4/sites/default/images did not work

changed $my_domain variable to http://localhost/~Cory/drupal-6.4 did not work
changed it back did not work

So I don't know what else to do
