Comment:
It looks like a configuration issue to me:[[BR]]
Did you check that all the directories under
`/var/lib/trac/dev/attachments` are all writable by your web server?
For example, if you run debian, the attachments/wiki directory should be
writable by user "www-data".
Such a misconfiguration often occurs when you first create your
environment (with `trac-admin`) as root or a regular user, while your web
server uses a dedicated account to execute.
