Same problem with one issue here, but other issues in same project is it possible to attach documents as usual.

Start with a look at the log file - it probably has error messages that will explain "unable to create".

However, this is usually

* permissions on the attachments directory
* no disk space left
* disk accidentally unmounted
* (and my favourite, as it's usually mixed up with "no space") disk is out of free inodes
