Captcha 2.1 install issue

Hello!

We recently moved our site, or rather had our site moved to a new VDS provider, but the Captcha 1.0 broke.

In trying to install v2, I'm getting an install error:

"Upload failed as /media directory is not writable."

I'm not sure which directory this might pertain to, and in combing through the site, the only "media" directory already has 766 permissions.

What am I missing?

I suspect there may be a whole host of creeping permissions issues, since the site was moved and not installed from scratch.

Thanks for any available help!

have you fixed this issue?

it is a permission problem - if you have J1.5 installed try enabling the FTP layer.
