The thing is, i’m running my wordpress installation on a BeagleBone Black. I simply started a fresh version of Ubuntu 14.04, however by default it ships with Apache2 installed, and all my other websites had been run by Nginx instead. So i simply just removed everything called apache, and installed Nginx. Then configured MySQL and installed the PHP-packages. Then i changed the permissions for folders and files (To the same as before, 755 for wp-content and 644 for wp-config.php), and then i restarted Nginx. Now i can easily crop, edit and work with different pictures, and i’m also able to install plugins 🙂 * I’m not sure what exactly caused this, if it were Nginx/Apache or some PHP configuration, i don’t now. Anyways, it works now! * Thank you all for your input! * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Can't use media in WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-use-media-in-wordpress/) * Thread Starter [nikko4913](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nikko4913/) * (@nikko4913) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-use-media-in-wordpress/#post-6875406) * All subdirectories under wp-content has the level 755. I’ve tried that line you posted, James, and i don’t know if that had an affect. I also changed to pretty permalinks, and i’m now able to skip cropping and use a picture as a favicon, but cropping still throws an error. It says: “There has been an error cropping your image”, but i can still select the image, i just can’t save the cropping. And when i go to the media tab, i can see all the pictures uploaded, but clicking edit, shows me the editing menu with all the tools, but the image appears unavailable. * So, some change, but it’s still not workable… * Again, thank you to everyone trying to help! * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Can't use media in WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-use-media-in-wordpress/) * Thread Starter [nikko4913](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nikko4913/) * (@nikko4913) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-use-media-in-wordpress/#post-6875379) * This is the permissions i’ve set: www-data owning the whole wordpress folder, wp-content is 755 permissionlevel, and wp-config.php is level 644.

I installed WordPress on the server just in these last few days, so thats also pretty fresh. Regarding the link you gave me, I acutally did exactly what it said in there, but with another tutorial. Here’s my system specs if that has any importance: Ubuntu 14.04 on BeagleBone Black LAMPS setup * This is the tutorial I followed during installation: [https://dotnetdavid.wordpress.com/2013/09/25/beaglebone-blackwordpress-on-ubuntu/](https://dotnetdavid.wordpress.com/2013/09/25/beaglebone-blackwordpress-on-ubuntu/) * Thanks 🙂 * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Can't use media in WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-use-media-in-wordpress/) * Thread Starter [nikko4913](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nikko4913/) * (@nikko4913) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-use-media-in-wordpress/#post-6875367) * I do not have any plugins installed, and because this is a fresh installation of wordpress, i have never had any on this one. However, i do have an .htaccess file, but it doesn’t contain anything that should be able to cause this. I’ve been running WordPress before on a system like this, where it worked perfectly even though i had that .htaccess file with the same contents.

I then reinstalled 4.4 through the update option in the dashboard.
