After upgrading to 2.9, “No media attachments found”

  • Got a bit of a problem. I’ve got my own domain hosted at Yahoo Small Business with a WordPress on it.

    After upgrading to v2.9 the other day, when I’m at Dashboard => Media Library, all (image) attachments have disappeared. The attachments are still on server and still load as normal on the blog site itself, but I can’t manipulate them via Media Library anymore.

    Anyone has an idea what could be causing this?

  • Hi,

    Add this code in htaccess:

    <IfModule mod_security.c>
SecFilterEngine Off
SecFilterScanPOST Off
</IfModule>

    Assign 755 recursive permissions to wp-content folder.

    Disable all the plugins.

    Also save the upload path again from wordpress admin area.

    Thanks,

    Shane G.

    Heya; thanks for the reply.

    Yahoo Small Business disallows access to htaccess, so I couldn’t make that code change you’ve suggested.

    Did all the rest though, but Media Library still shows up nothing.

    Have you checked the settings on Admin > Settings > Miscellaneous are correct?

    Yep – no changes to the upload paths.

    Here’s what I mean:

    I have the same problem at my yahoo web hosting account that I maintain for my church. However the personal blogs that I host a dreamhost upgraded with no issues at all. Guess this this will be the last straw to move the church away from yahoo webhosting.

    I have the exact same problem — hosted with Yahoo! small biz, can’t see media images in the library.

    Has anyone been able to resolve this in a Yahoo hosted setting? I upgraded to 2.9 and have the exact same scenario. And Yahoo does not let us access htaccess.
    I can use file manager to get to the uploads area of wp-content and I see that all of my photos are still there. And when I go to the Media Library, it shows 246 images. But I get the ‘no media attachments found’ message.
    Surely there must be a fix without having access to the htaccess file. Yahoo has LOTS of wordpress installations!
    Please help, someone.

    Can you still see the pages & posts? I had some custom code applied to a few pages in a theme, and my $p variable was being assigned to $_GET[‘p’] by wordpress and basically disabled my blog.

    I sent two e-mails to Yahoo. No response whatsoever.

    So anyone have any good links about how to migrate a blog from Yahoo to another service?
