00396: Creating uploads directory error message may require tidy

Description: I am enabling uploads.

 $UploadDir = "/home/ksyr69rn/public_html/pmwikiuploads";

I got the message

 
Warning: MkDir failed (Permission denied) in 
/home/ksyr69rn/public_html/pmwiki/pmwiki.php on line 361

PmWiki can't process your request
PmWiki needs to have a writable /home/ksyr69rn/public_html/pmwikiuploads/ 
directory before it can continue. You can create the directory manually by 
executing the following commands on your server: 

    mkdir /home/ksyr69rn/public_html//home/ksyr69rn/public_html/pmwikiuploads
    chmod 777 /home/ksyr69rn/public_html//home/ksyr69rn/public_html/pmwikiuploads
Then, reload this page.

We are sorry for any inconvenience.

Is it possible that the commands shown above incorrectly repeat the directory?

• Doing this again, knowing the correct commands for congif.php, and there really does appear to be a problem:

Config is

 
$EnablePathInfo = 1;
$EnableUpload = 1;
$UploadDir = "/home/ttc/public_html/pmwikiuploads";
$UploadUrlFmt = "/pmwikiuploads";
