This is probably your problem. For a directory to be considered a directory, it MUST have execute permissions. Common configurations are 775 or -drwxrwxr--, depending on how your control panel visualizes it.
the directory has permissions 755, owned by the www server user; isn't it enough? Also: must it be in the drupal installation root or in (for virtual hosting) drupalroot/sites/virtualdomain_1/files ??
D.
The files directory should be under where Drupal is installed. Vis, at the same level as the sites, database, modules, and themes directories.
(I think you're supposed to be able to get it to work inside a site/something/ directory, but I've never actually gotten it to work. <g>)
