Image attachment won't upload.

Just tried adding an attached image to a post. No can do. Gives this error message:

QuoteThere was a problem during the uploading of _Elk_11_display_poster_details.jpg.
There was a problem and your attachments could not be uploaded, Your attachment couldn't be saved. This might happen because it took too long to upload or the file is bigger than the server will allow.

Please consult your server administrator for more information.
The image in question was a 1280 x 960 JPG (141 kB). Saved straight from Photoshop, so not a dodgy image.

This is an on-going problem, at least in this board and it's subboards.

It appears to be related to either a full attachment directory and/or inability to create an additional attachment directory

Its been an annoyance since we moved to the new server.  Its a one click fix from the ACP to get them working again but I'm not sure why its not happening auto-magically.  Of course I've not spent any time looking into it either :P
