Something seems to be terribly wrong with the path information you entered within Serendipity. The screenshot you supplied shows that there are no stylesheets loaded, which should be in your case.
Please open the config panel from scratch and look at the default path values s9y autodetects and compare them to what you entered. There must be some error in a way that s9y cannot see the right directory...

I tried to change the path many diffrent times of which you just mentioned.
Sometimes the stylesheets is loaded, however, the problem is the SAME.
See this screenshot:

That screenshot looks better. However, please create a phpinfo.php file (with the contents '<?php phpinfo(); ?>' inside your s9y directory and make that available to me, so I can see your path settings.
The please tell me which paths you entered in s9y and I can compare them.
Regards,
Garvin.

So, if you saved your phpinfo.php file EXACTLY where you saved your serendipity installation (where all the serendipity_functions.inc.php and other files are in), then you must set those paths inside your installation
Full Path: /local/www/data/
Upload Path: uploads/
Relative Path: /
Relative Template path: templates/
Relative Upload Path: uploads/
URL to blog:
http://omybbs.51.net/
This should be what s9y automatically unpacks. What your error could be is that you think you can enter the paths where s9y should install itself, but what you ARE entering in fact is the place where you already installed s9y.
Where you install s9y is a matter of where you unpack s9y to.
Hope that helps,
Garvin.

Did you try to chmod the base directory to 777? And if there is an 'archives' subdirectory, chmod that to 777 as well. It should work then...?

Yes, but did you set the base directory to it as well?
Please post the directory structure of the whole directory tree where you unpacked s9y to. Most FTP utilies support getting a filelist WITH PERMISSIONS, so that I can see something like:
<code>

If you can't get your FTP editor to that, try a php script:
<?php print_r(passthru('ls -la')); ?>
a NEW erorr appeared....
