That looks as though it's trying to create a directory on your server and failing.

Is your data and internal_data folders properly chmodded to 0777?

That is odd, that was indeed the issue. With Cyber Duck though I couldn't just now even get the folders to stay 0777, soon as I'd refresh they'd revert back to 0755. I had to SSH as root user to get the premissions to stay 0777

I've found some odd behaviour with CyberDuck recently. I've gone back to using FileZilla.

Yeah, I only started using CyberDuck recently. It's the only FTP client that works on my Mac for uploading to my CDN at Rackspace. I hadn't heard of it until getting the CDN.

Sorry to bring up a dead topic but I'm getting the same error after moving servers but I changed both data and internal)Data back to 777 to no avail.

You need to change all of the child directories and all of the child files to 0777 as well.
