Strange problem with Flash image uploader

    My site’s been up for about a year now and I haven’t had any troubles until this morning. I was trying to upload an image to a post the same way I always do through the image uploader, but once the upload bar filled to 100%, the login/password box popped up within the image uploader window. I put in my login and password, but it said “try again” and the same thing happens every time.

    The only change I’ve made to my site is registering a new user as an editor, but I’m registered as an Admin and the problem took place before he even knew he had editor access.

    Anybody know what could be causing this?

    Thanks in advance.

    Still having issues with this. I contacted my host and this was the message I got back:

    I had a look at the SWF uploader, and was not able to make heads or tails of why it’s not working. I tried 2 different web-browsers each running a different version of Shockwave Flash, and neither of them could get the Flash Uploader to work. The only thing that I can think of that ~might~ cause this is potentially the script may need to be re-configured for the new system path to the uploads directory. On your (gs) Grid-Service account the absolute path was:
    /home/64590/domains/albotas.com/html/wp-content/uploads/

    On your (dv) Dedicated-Virtual server the path is:
    /var/www/vhosts/albotas.com/httpdocs/wp-content/uploads/

    Since I’m not familiar with the configuration files for your Flash uploader (or where they’re located) I’ve not looked at them.

    Anyone out there know how to fix this?
