Errors when trying to upload - possible chmod problem?

[drhamad]

We recently had to reinstall our coppermine gallery ( http://mazda3forums.com/gallery ) and we're having a file upload problem. 

When someone clicks upload file, they get this on the top of the page:

Warning: is_dir(): Stat failed for ./albums/edit/. (errno=13 - Permission denied) in /home/mazda3/public_html/gallery/upload.php on line 432

Warning: filemtime(): Stat failed for ./albums/edit/. (errno=13 - Permission denied) in /home/mazda3/public_html/gallery/upload.php on line 440

Warning: unlink(./albums/edit/.): Permission denied in /home/mazda3/public_html/gallery/upload.php on line 453

Warning: is_dir(): Stat failed for ./albums/edit/.. (errno=13 - Permission denied) in /home/mazda3/public_html/gallery/upload.php on line 432

Warning: filemtime(): Stat failed for ./albums/edit/.. (errno=13 - Permission denied) in /home/mazda3/public_html/gallery/upload.php on line 440

Warning: unlink(./albums/edit/..): Permission denied in /home/mazda3/public_html/gallery/upload.php on line 453

I've been thinking it's a chmod problem with the "edit" folder, but here's the weird thing - I can't enter or chmod that folder.  It says permission denied when I try to enter it (either through ftp or shell access) and operation not permitted when I try to chmod it.  I have no idea why this would be... any ideas?

Yes sir, I figured that.  Unfortunately anything I've searched for regarding the issue has only come back with this post.  I guess I'm just not sure what to search for?  I've searched for several different selections from the error msg's.
