You must follow the troubleshooting guide before we can assist.

Well, problem is solved - PHP was running in Safe Mode.

Devs please - mention it somewhere, like Gallery devs do!

Like in the docs?

2.4 Safe mode issues

A significant number of webhosts on the Internet run PHP in safe mode. Coppermine runs without any problem in safe mode and with the "open basedir restriction" active, provided safe mode is properly configured. Unfortunately, on many hosts, safe mode is not configured properly.

If your webhost is running PHP in safe mode but is misconfigured, you may need to do the following :

    * With a FTP program, change the mode of Coppermine's "include" directory on your server to 0777.
    * Do the same for the "albums" and "userpics" directories.
    * Check that at the beginning the the "include/config.inc.php" file, you have a line with : "define('SILLY_SAFE_MODE', 1);"

eh, so give out some human readable error messages (or error codes), not like "The previous file could not be placed. You have successfully placed all the files.". - there is no even internal logic in this sentence. guys, i appreciate your work, but you are coding for ppl.

If you did as suggested then you would get useful messages. Detailed error messages are not dished out to regular site visitors for good reason.
