 * I’m getting the following error:
    **An unexpected error occured. This is most
   likely due to a server misconfiguration. Check your PHP error log or ask your
   hosting provider for assistance.**
 * I’m using the latest version of WordPress en the Nextgen Gallery. Disabled all
   the other plugins and activated the default twenty fifteen theme. I also moved
   the website to a diverent server but still uploading is not working. I also set
   my wp-content rights to 777 (I know, not advisable).
 * Uploading using the default WordPress Media Library is working as aspected, the
   problem is only using Nextgen.
 * There is nothing in the PHP log file releated to te Nextgen plugin.

   Reset Option under Gallery > Other Options?
 * Also, what are you seeing under Gallery > Overview for your Server Settings?

 * Another website on the same server is working good. So I don’t think it’s the
   server.

 * [@rvdam](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rvdam/) – If another installation
   of NextGEN Gallery on the same server is working fine, I would suggest looking
   at the differences between the two sites to see if you can identify a possible
   conflict.
 * Thanks!
