Most important step is to use pwd to output the name of the directory you are currently in.
this command cd 2014/dec keeps returning an error message . Even if I copy and paste the exact command from the instructions into the CL.
You can try the following command cd …/…
I also had a lot of struggles on this one because I was so confused about how to set it up. I got what it was asking but it took me a little bit to execute it. I solved it by doing
$ cd 2014/dec; ls
and I got it correct. The semicolon (
is your identifier to make a new line.

What I did, is just exit out the bash terminal and start a new terminal and insert that requested " cd 2014/dec command line, and it worked for me!

I was reading what victoria-dr said about moving up.
And I couldn’t understand why cd 2014/dec would not work.
Because a step or two prior to this infamous one we had to move up.
Thank you so much.
flakey7864 and victoria-dr.
I didn’t think to refresh.
Thanks! This actually worked.
The first exercise regarding cd 2014/dec. Just reset as many times as required, it must be a bug! wasted 30 minutes.
So I’m not sure if this is what’s keeping me from moving on, the current error for me is that I didn’t use ls after cd 2014/dec when I clearly did. But when ls shows what’s inside the dec/ directory, it shows there’s already a file named media, which is supposed to be the next step but it’s already there. I’m confused, is it a bug? I found that’s what is different from all the users having the same problem
Thanks a lot, Your ‘‘Resetting’’ word save my life 
I was unable to move for ages, almost cried 
$ pwd
enter
$ cd 2014/dec
enter
$ pwd
enter
$ ls
enter
Was stuck for awhile this will work

Hello,
Did you manage to get past this stage?
media should not be in there.
to get around this you need to enter:
$ pwd then enter
/home/ccuser/workspace/blog
$ cd 2014/dec; ls
media monitor.txt mouse.txt
rmdir media (enter)
$ pwd and then ls
the only thing left should be monitor.txt and mouse.txt
This worked for me after being stuck for 2 hours.
