When creating a new folder, this error is shown:
Use only alphanumeric symbols and "_" symbol in folder name
This is shown although the suggested foldername was "erik"... The folder wasn't created either.

I'm still getting the same message. How do I update my software after the problem has been patched?

Yeah, not so much.
It won't let me create any new folders at all and gives me the aforementioned message. I even tried it with the latest version (imagevue v2 beta 20080717 2) with no avail.
The gallery looks good, though. Thanks for helping us through it!

It does work now:
content » erik [0]
Folder succesfully created
It won't let me create any new folders
this is because of permissions, you need to chmod content dir so php can write to it. Right click on content/ in ftp cliend set it to read/write for everybody and apply with [x] Recursive setting.
More about that here:

I'm also receiving this message. I changed permissions per the doc when installing, just checked again and all the permissions are set correctly.
V2 is running locally using MAMP Pro. Anything that should be checked in the PHP or Apache config files?

Rechecked the permissions and still getting the same problem. Using FireFox browser, if that makes a difference. Also, I'm getting three "!" icons in the upper right of the admin, saying I don't have mbstring extension properly installed, that PHP on my server compiled without ICONV support and that PHP on my server compiled without EXIF data support. Could this cause this problem?

Same goes for me. I'm using imagevue v2 beta 20080717, and I've doublechecked the permissions.

I'd like to report that this issue has also cleared for me with update 'imagevue v2 beta 20080720', same as film915.

You should give folders normal filenames, without national chars, that will ensure no errors with file operations, titles however use UTF-8 thus allowing you to use any language for titles, they are displayed in gallery, not filenames/foldernames.
