 Sorry it's taken this long for me to reply, I used to get emailed without
 CC'ing on tickets I created, but I guess that changed.

 > The upload path in the admin should be set to a relative-to-ABSPATH I
 believe, and you're also expected to fill out the URL if you change the
 location. Either (or both) of those 2 assumptions should correct the issue
 you're seeing.

 process the data on there, and show some more info (ie. guess the
 resulting url).
 It works when I fill in the URL.

 > If I set the path to the uploads folder to a relative path (e.g. wp-
 content/my-uploads), as described by dd32, then the uploads worked as
 indicated. Files went to the correct folder, images displayed correctly in
 the library, when inserting into a post, and on the public site.

 Works for me too once I change it to a relative location.

 I've attached a patch which adds more information to the URL setting
