HTTP error on image uploader

For anyone experiencing the famous “HTTP error.” message when trying to upload an image I though I’d share my fix. In general this can be a rather generic error so start by looking through your webserver’s error logs. I happen to be running Nginx so the issue for me was that the client_max_body_size defaults to 1M and needed to be bigger. Adding client_max_body_size 100m; to the http{} section of nginx.conf did the trick for me. Hope it helps someone else.
