Where Am I?
Question: I need to get a server path for my new file directory. I know what my regular directory is, but not the system path. How can I find this setting?
Answer: The easiest way to do this is to create a whereami.php file with the following content:
<?php echo realpath(dirname(__FILE__)) . '/'; ?>
FTP the file up to your new images folder, and navigate to that folder using your browser. You’ll now see your server path.
NOTE: This code snippet will work with both EE1.x and EE2.x.

TShoot: Problems with File Uploads in EE2.02PB build 20100430
When I attempt to use the File Manager from EE202PB build 20100430, I see the following error:
Fatal error: Using $this when not in object context in */expressionengine/config/mimes.php on line 62
What causes this, and how can I fix it?
There was a change in the /system/expressionengine/config/mimes.php file that you need to replace if you were using an earlier build of EE2.0x.
Replacing the mimes.php file fixes the problem.
