NextGEN upload images error #2038 on nginx

    I just installed NextGEN gallery on WordPress 3.1 on my Linux server. I have errors when uploading using the flash file uploader:

    ERROR IO FAILURE : image.jpg : Error #2038

    My nginx.conf already have this:

    client_max_body_size 2M;

    ..and my php.ini have this:

    upload_max_filesize = 2M

    Also the whole install folder of wordpress (and all subfolders) have 777 permission set (all writable)

    The images are small, so the size should not be an issue here. I’m out of ideas, does anyone else have some?

    Within your Dashboard of WordPress, goto Media, Upload, and you will see a note:
    “Maximum upload file size: 8MB”

    It’s not each file size, but you are limited to an aggregate of 8 meg worth of files per upload. (Try several small groups of uploads. ie: if you have 15 meg to upload, upload 2 separate 7-1/2 meg groups at a time.)

    You are able to increase this limit if you alter your htaccess file at the server level. If not, ask your server admin to do so. (beware that this protocal is in place to limit your time, as servers have limits on how much time they can run per access.)

    I have increased mine to 64meg and seems to work ok.
