Man, this is great. It solved my problem big time!
It worked for me too! Thank you very much!
Thanks for your suggestion, I can now finally use the flash uploader. Actually it works without the mod_security part, so you can leave that out.
Thank you soooo much for this. I would have arrived at the same conclusion eventually, but you just saved me probably HOURS of frustration, and I REALLY appreciate that. This solution worked perfectly.
Yeee!!! It worked. It saved me for more hours googling. Thanks!
Thank you very much! I have spent many time looking for solution. You are great!!!
Thank you! I have spent most of the afternoon trying to fix this problem, having set up protected access to my school PTA’s site this morning. At last it works again!
It didn´t worked for me, but I figured out the issue was with the flash uploader. The “browser uploader” worked just fine. Now I have a hunch that this could be also a flash issue. File permisions were the same, wordpress version, plugins and so on. I tried everything and only switching to the old uploader helped.
thanks! so glad i came across this post. worked a treat for me, i had exactly the same issue (but only in Google Chrome) I was sure i was gonna search for days to find a fix for this… nice save .. thanks!
man it worked!, although my .HTACCESS file was not in the admin directory it was in the root, so i added the code to the existing .htaccess file and VOILA!
Everything indicates that the error “HTTP Error” while uploading images is caused by a change in the Apache FastCGI module (mod_fcgid 2.3.6) that limits the value of the parameter MaxRequestLen to 128KB (very low). Previously this limit was 1GB. Therefore this problem is likely to occur only on servers running PHP in FastCGI mode and only when trying to upload a file larger than 128KB.
