 * Suddenly this morning, I can’t upload a Featured Image to my Divi web site post.
   Anyone has a suggestion for the fix?

 * You mentioned Divi – that’s a commercial theme that we [can’t support here in the forum](https://wordpress.org/support/guidelines/#do-not-post-about-commercial-products).
   Does the image upload fail even under “Media” without Divi at all? If so, what
   error message do you see? And are there any issues listed under Tools > Site 
   Health?

 * I tried the same efforts as you describe. Like your experience, none of them 
   worked. It is certainly not a single image uploaded problem. The problem occurs
   for any new image upload.

 * I don’t understand your question. I can’t upload a Featured Image.

 * And what do you see? What’s happening? Any error messages?
 * And please check under Tools > Site Health to see if there are any messages there.

 * Since the problem is happening with new images rather than just one particular
   file, I would first check whether the upload also fails outside the Divi editor.
 * Try **Media → Add New** and upload the same image there. If it fails, please 
   note the exact error message shown by WordPress. Also check **Tools → Site Health
   → Status** for any critical issues or warnings related to the server, filesystem,
   or REST API.
 * If images upload normally through Media but fail only when selecting a Featured
   Image in Divi, then the issue is more likely related to Divi or a plugin conflict.
 * Without the actual error message, it would be difficult to identify the specific
   cause. A screenshot of the failed upload/error would also help narrow it down.

 * This information is very helpful. Thank you. I was able to successfully upload
   the same .png file usint the Media—Add New funtion.
 * I could not find a REST API error on Site Health.
 * How can I provide you a screen shot of the error message?

 * I just tried to upload the same image as I did yesterday. The issue seems to 
   be resolved.
