if you do something like a "ps -al |more" you'll get a list of all processes
& the user running them. I believe what you're concerned about is apache
permissions, so check what user httpd is running as, and allow that account
permissions into the directory.

OK this is definately a permissions issue....I gave "Group" and World"
write permission to the directory in question and voila! uploads now work.
My concern is that changing the permissions on the directory is not the
safest way and I would prefer to assign additional rights to the account
that CF Server uses...but what is that account called on Linux??
Thanks eveybody

I'm running CFMX 6.1 Standard on Redhat 8, and I don't have a
/CFIDE/main/ide.cfm file either, but I'm able to upload without any problem.
Most likely you'll need to give the user that the CF server is running
as permission to the directory you're uploading to.
The easiest way to check if permissions are the issue is to temporarily
change the permissions of the directory you're uploading the file to. If you
set the permissions to 777, and the upload works, then CF doesn't have the
proper rights to the directory while the permissions are set as they should
be.
HTH,
