upgrade to 4.0 and media upload fails

  • i recently upgraded to 4.0 and from that point the upload of media doesnt work anymore.
    did disable all plugins and that didn’t differ.
    in ‘list view’i can see media and also a new uploaded file appears there but i can’t add media to pages or posts. verry annoying because we need to publissh information for school/parents.

    annyone familiar with this? should i downgrade?

    This happened to me too after migrating my database from an earlier version.

    I was able to SOLVE it by going into phpMyAdmin for my database.

    • Select the wp_posts table.
    • Go to Structure view.
    • In the ID field, see whether AUTO_INCREMENT is in the Extras column.
    • If not, click “change” on the ID row, find “A_I” or Auto Increment, and check/select it.

    Do the same for wp_postmeta. While you are at it, look for other tables that have “ID” that is not set to AUTO_INCREMENT.

    Let me know if this helps! I only found it because our old install was working, so I could look directly at the two phpMyAdmin screens and compare them.

    PS: I wasn’t able to add new posts or upload media, and this solved both.
