Upload error

LSRN94’s answer worked for me. Seems like a pretty big error to have to be hunted down and fixed like this…

ahhh!!! this is doing my head it!
When i put the code suggested into the .htaccess file i just get a
“500 Internal Server Error”
I already have code in there for permalinks and also “RewriteEngine off” because it is a parked domain.

This is what it looks like before adding the code suggested

`
RewriteEngine off
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress`

I have tried putting it at the end and at the start and between the rewrite engine off and wordpress code. Nothings seems to work. 500 internal errors all round. 🙁

anything else to try? anyone else having this problem?

I’m having this problem as well – just get the error

An error occurred in the upload. Please try again later.
not sure why trying later would work – strange thing to add to a error message

This is a development blog, so there’s NO PLUGINS ACTIVATED, just a raw WP install

I’ve got index’s turned off in the root .htaccess and in the wp directory this is my .htaccess

AuthType Basic
AuthName “*****”
AuthUserFile “/****/passwd”
require valid-user
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

<IfModule mod_security.c>
<Files async-upload.php>
SecFilterEngine Off
SecFilterScanPOST Off
</Files>
</IfModule>

# END WordPress

hope this get’s fixed soon.

This solved the ‘HTTP error’ for me (see my problem and setup above) :

My latest uploaded .htaccess file to root dir looks like this :

<IfModule mod_security.c>
SecFilterEngine Off
SecFilterScanPOST Off
</IfModule>
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress

I had this issue as well…and here’s how I fixed it, I disabled the password protected directory setting I had on my blog’s admin directory.

Once that was deleted, the uploading worked fine. Hope this helps someone.

I have the same problem as everone else: HTTP error when I try to upload an Image. All the Word press files are in a directory named latest which is at root level. What level is the .htacess file that is being talked about? There is an .ht access file at root level but there is not one in my wordpress directory. I tried creating one with the lines from JonasBangs post and uploaded it to the wordpress directory but after that I could not access anything, just got a 500 internal server error message. So I quickly deleted the file and at least all the other wordpress funtions are back. Can anyone give some very specific instrutions about this .htaccess file. should it be a new file or additional lines to an existing file and what directory should it be in?

I’m frustrated. I’ve been researching this issue on and off for two weeks and I have not had any luck. I’ve tried all of the solutions
presented in this post and numerous others.

I’m using a mac 10.4.11, and firefox or safari (same exact issue with both).

I have three WP installs in three directories on my site (the real production one and two to test things out). Two of the installs run 2.5.1 and the other is on 2.3. The real (production) install has all its files in a /wp folder, but has a copy of the index file in the root directory. I’ve even done multiple installs (deleted all the files and reinstalled everything.

When I attempt to upload an image, it crunches, but no image is presented. It doesn’t save a file. Here is a link to an image. I have adjusted and readjusted the permissions on the upload folder. I’ve even entered the full path on the misc. screen in the settings.

I have multiple .htaccess files (one in each directory and one in the root. I’ve adjusted them all.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I have tried ALL above solutions, with no joy.

I am on Dreamhost and used their 1-click install. Get http error when the file ‘crunches’.

Have tried adding all suggestions to htaccess, no luck

Have CHMOD’d correctly

AGH

Can anyone help
