This is in the FAQ :-)
Why can't I add any widgets, either through the admin interface or by dropping 
them into the deploy folder?
One of the most common reasons for this is that the application doesn't have 
permission to write to the wookie/wservices directory, which is where Wookie 
expands widgets when they are uploaded. For example, if you are deploying 
Wookie on Tomcat, make sure webapps/wookie is owned by the tomcat user and not 
by root.



... I've also just checked in a diagnostic routine to check for these problems 
on server startup.
