I get this error message in my Drupal 5.7 installation if a user wants to upload a picture...

even the folder exists and its permissions are set to 777

* The selected file /*/*/public_html/nil/tmp/tmp_rQQbVm could not be copied.
* Failed to upload the picture image; the pictures directory doesn't exist or is not writable.

hope someone can help me with solving this...

enable user picture uploads (user settings) and make sure the picture directory is valid.

if you make sure that picture uploads work in the first place (before you use this module), then it should work fine.

i'm closing this, but if picture uploads work in the rest of the system, and just not this module, then please re-open or make a new issue.
