I recently had a malware issue in forum and thus I had to install a fresh copy of SMF but keeping the same old database.

Now, I am having these issues:

The attachments upload directory is not writable. Your attachment or avatar cannot be saved.

I am unable to upload any file to forum. I did try chmod to 755 and 777 both but it didnt got solved.
Is it anything to do with database ?

I even tried repair_settings.php but everything was alright in it...

And genuine help regarding this ?

Dunno if you'd call this "Genuine help", but...

One would assume that the attachments worked, before you reinstalled, yes?

If so, check the ol' error-log.

Is there anything showing, there?
