    Hello Alex!

    First of all I would like to thank you for the best ever wordpress plugin there is. I am totally in to it and I really, really love it. It has made my blog just the way I have always dreamed of.

    Only think that I just couldn’t figure out is the problem that I experience with Upload function.

    Every time I try to use it, it starts crunching, but at the end it produces this massage: ERROR HTTP ERROR : filename.jpg : 503. At the last file the wordpress informs me: Directory /home/myhome/public_html/wp-content/gallery/test contains no pictures

    I had almost the same problem with WordPress build in Media Uploader until I have installed “Image Upload HTTP Error Fix” plugin. You can find it here: https://lud.icro.us/wordpress-plugin-image-upload-http-error-fix/

    My Server Settings

    * Operating System : Linux
    * Server : Apache/1.3.41 (Unix) mod_auth_passthrough/1.8 mod_log_bytes/1.2 mod_bwlimited/1.4 FrontPage/5.0.2.2635 mod_ssl/2.8.31 OpenSSL/0.9.7a
    * Memory usage : 12.58 MByte
    * MYSQL Version : 5.0.51a-community

    * PHP Exif support : Yes ( V1.4 )
    * PHP IPTC support : Yes
    * PHP XML support : Yes

    GD support

    * GD Version : bundled (2.0.34 compatible)
    * FreeType Support : Yes
    * FreeType Linkage : with freetype

    Thank you again for your great work! I really hope this could be somehow resolved as step with ftp isn’t my favorite one. However, have a great time!

    Many thanks to John Blackbourn at https://lud.icro.us/wordpress-plugin-image-upload-http-error-fix/ for helping me at solving this problem!

    My ERROR 503 is gone now and Flash unloader works like charm!

    SOLUTION:

    If you’re happy editing your blog’s .htaccess file, try adding this to the end of the file:

    <IfModule mod_security.c>
    <Files upload.php>
    SecFilterEngine Off
    SecFilterScanPOST Off
    </Files>
    </IfModule>

    NextGen uses a file called upload.php for handling uploads, and this code should disable mod_security on that file.

    Thanks for the feedback, I will check if I can determine mod_security and look for a patch
