Make sure your /waffle/system/dirs file has an entry for the root files
directory ("files:" in the static file).
What happens if user "test" does, say, "files /pub/waffle" where "/pub/waffle"
is one of the subdirectories of the root file area?
[I guess this is going in the FAQ, as this is the third time I've answered the
question -- made the answer a lot more concise this time, too =)]
