"no such file or directory" error in mysql

I'm trying to set permissions in mysql for an ecommerce open source application (freeway) for a path: Set the permissions on Freeway/images directory to 777

in my terminal I have typed: chmod 777 /Sites/Freeway/images

but it is telling me that "no such file or directory exists", and yet when I use the "ls" command to search for the correct path, Sites is listed. mysql is not recognizing it "Sites" as a file....

Can anyone explain why this would be?

Thanks

Are you sure the path is /Sites/Freeway/images. The path might be Sites/Freeway/images.
Tyep the following command in terminal and let us know what it says.

ls /Sites/Freeway/images
