GoDaddy – WordPress Site Hosting Issues

I am using GoDaddy Windows Shared Hosting Server to host my WordPress Website. I am NOT using GoDaddy Managed WordPress service (I just copied my files on server, created DB and site works). However, I am facing some issues as follows :

  1. Permalinks do not seem to work – Despite of the fix in .htaccess file for mod_rewrite module OR resetting the Permalink option via Admin Dashboard.
  2. Cannot upload media : I get an error “Cannot upload media to wp-content/uploads” – If I set the upload_path in DB from BLANK to the above path, still the error continues.

To check if I have DB Connection issues: I tried to create a POST and I could do it well. Just that I could not upload MEDIA.

GoDaddy tech support is NOT able to resolve these issues.Meaning their solutions do not seem to work for me. Can anyone help me with my issues ?
