10639	"Media and Image Upload PHP Errors - ""Too many levels of symbolic links"""	mrquint15		"In the media library, in 2.8.4 (this bug existed for me in 2.8.3 as well), image uploads return the following error:

Warning: is_dir() [function.is-dir]: Stat failed for /nfs/c01/h03/mnt/32054/domains/xxx.xxx.xxx/html/wp-content/uploads/2009 (errno=40 - Too many levels of symbolic links) in /nfs/c01/h09/mnt/32054/domains/xxx.xxx.xxx/html/wp-includes/functions.php on line 1942

I am unable to upload new images, or manipulate images that are currently in the system.  This error message is repeated all the way down the page in the media section of the admin screen, and appears three times after attempting to add a new image.  

This site is hosted on a Media Temple Grid Server.  There is a recent forum posting I found that confirms the issue is not isolated to just me: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/301606?replies=5"	defect (bug)	closed	high		Upload	2.8.4	normal	invalid
