That’is simple, just modify php.ini file change parameter
register_globals = off
to
register_globals = on

Good luck!

I started with your step 2, and went to Wordpress Miscellaneous Option settings. I noticed my upload folder was wp-content, but it stated that the default upload folder was wp-content/upload. After changing to the latter, my problem was fixed.

actually all the accounts in my reseller are affected by this. and i am about to email you the list of the accounts but it just happened that someone has fixed the problem… i tested all the accounts (one by one), they can now upload images using the Wordpress Upload function.

Thanks for your help.

Can you email me which folder or blog is this? I may be looking at a different blog or directory.

Yuga @ Ah ok… thanks for doing it, but i still experience the same even if the folders are already in 777 permission setting… Wordpress is still telling me this: “File is empty. Please upload something more substantial. This error could also be caused by uploads being disabled in your php.ini.”

Juler @ thanks for reminder… about the provider… later …

Yuga @ thanks for the tip.

Bendz @ hmmm 99% of webhost experience downtime… even Google’s own.

What’s your hosting provider? Just like dexter said some hosting providers are not safe from hackers

Just checked your /uploads/ folder and the permission is still 755. I took the liberty of changing it to 777 and all subfolders under it.

get yourself a new host. Ploghost sucks! (sue me Yuga!). Your blog goes down at least once a week and sometimes, I get a phishing site alarm when I log in here.

Anyway, my upgrade went through with a breeze heehehhehe. WP 2.5 looks way better than 2.3.3. Wait till you start composing a post in fullscreen.

i’m having the exact same problem. i cannot upload files from wordpress!!and even if i have already uploaded it in wp-content thru cpanel, still the files will not show to the whole world. i cannot even edit anything..it’s not only the uploading..

and setting anything to 777 permission is dangerous. it allows anyone to WRITE or delete any file..664 is safe. its allowance of the user to write to the server that is the problem, in your apache server settings.

are you my reseller-host??!~!!!(marvinsweb)
