I have a very similar issue. I can upload to a new gallery with FTP but the thumbs will not create. If I drop the images into the uploader, they fail to upload. Have deleted Nextgen and reinstalled. Changed to different admin login. Cannot upload to existing gallery, nor to newly created gallery.
PHP 5.2 or thereabouts. Have nextgen on several other sites, same server, no problem (or I hope not, have not checked them for a couple of days).
Plug conflict. Disabled everything and now uploads complete.
Looks like it’s Plugin Organizer causing the problem.
I enabled Nextgen in Plugin Organizer global settings. Looks like that may have solved the problem….

It is not the same problem. In my case the first image are uploaded and the thumb for the first image is created. The problem is the step from first to second image etc.
No plugin conflict in my case, because I have only nextgen active 😉
@dimizu – With only NextGEN Gallery and Twenty Fourteen active I would lean towards looking at the Permissions the WordPress user has to start (although not likely the case).
Also, what are you seeing under Gallery > Overview … Server Settings?
@brough – Thanks for the input and suggestions!

@photocrati Member: the WordPress-User is a administrator. Therefore, I cannot imagine there the problem.

I notice this strange behaviour:
As write above, the first image is uploaded. However, the status of the first image remains at about 70-90%. Then nothing happened. Then I click to the action icon at the right in the row of the first picture. The symbol with title attribute “using HTML5 runtime”. I say this because the icon image after click to the upload button does not appear. Also when I click to this Icon, then the other images are processed and a balloon says:
“Upload complete
0 images were uploaded “
But in the directory gallery/directory2upload there are all images and in the gallery/directory2upload/thumbs there are all thumbs. Ok, a click to the action Icon I this is a workaround for my problem.
Nevertheless, it would be nice if we could find the problem.
Suggestions?
@dimizu – Your initial post shows a different set of values for the server settings than the information under Gallery > Overview.
These details should be in sync and might be part of what is happening on your site.

My mistake. In my initial post, I have taken the values direct from the server. In Gallery > Overview there are the values that are specified in the .htaccess. However this was not the problem.
Now I have seen in the .htaccess that zlib.output_compression was on. I have commented out these two lines:
php_flag zlib.output_compression on
php_value zlib.output_compression_level 5
Apparently nextgen gallery will not work, if the runtime compression is on.
Now without compression works.
Thanks
@dimizu – I’m glad it is working and very well done finding those .htaccess directives as they are not part of a standard WordPress installation’s .htaccess set up.
Thanks!!
