What are some common challenges faced by PHP beginners when working with file uploads and image processing scripts?

One common challenge faced by PHP beginners when working with file uploads is handling file permissions. Make sure the directory where you are trying to upload files has the correct permissions set to allow PHP to write to it. You can change the directory permissions using the chmod function in PHP. 

// Set directory permissions to allow PHP to write to it
$directory = 'uploads/';
$permissions = 0777; // Change this to the appropriate permissions
if (!file_exists($directory)) {
    mkdir($directory, $permissions, true);
} else {
    chmod($directory, $permissions);
}
