If it is a php script and has apache, recompile php as CGI, so that 755 permission for folder will work for uploads.

is this may(recompile php as CGI) cause any problem in other scripts

Yes it may. Basically, you have four different approaches how to run PHP with Apache: - mod_php (don't do that in a hosting environment!) - suPHP (CGI wrapper) - "real" CGI - Fast-CGI There are a lot of pros & cons for all of these approaches. If you switch from mod_php to any of the CGI solutions, you will have to adjust access rights and ownerships. Also there are some impacts on session handling, HTTP authentication and integration of different optimizers and/or caching solutions to be expected.
