Hi Guys, first post after downloading what looks like an AMAZING system. Congrats to all involved.

I am also having teething troubles with the image upload system, as detailed above.

Any input is greatly appreciated.

Update to say: The whole product catalogue fails to save and the flash icon just keeps ticking away. I was thinking maybe it was something to do with permissions?

Having the same problem. I was working for me before
It’s not the permissions. I chmod the folder 755 then 777 and it doesnt work.

OK, I have the solution.

Your hosting needs to be amended somewhat. Ask your hosts to modify MOD_SEC to allow https to pass a URL via a string.

I don’t know what it means, but it fixed my installation!

The solution for this, provided by my hosting customer service :
add the following to the .htaccess:

SecFilterEngine Off

Hello,

I am having the same issue and I have looked into the solutions posted here and everything should be fine.  My issue is slightly different however.  It works fine if you upload on a Windows or linux pc but not on a Mac.  I have tried multiple Macs and they all have the Http Upload error message.  Any thoughts?

Same problem here. Uploading with OSX Firefox gives me the Upload HTTP Error, but with Inter Explorer it works just fine.
I updated flash player to the latest version, but no succes. I tried all possible solutions, but I can’t get it working.

Any suggestions?

This “SecFilterEngine Off” solution worked for me! Thank you!!

Adding SecFilterEngine Off to .htaccess file worked for me as well

Problem solved for me and my mac: I had the same problem on my Mac and tried upgrading to flash 10 CR, (for which you have to use an uninstaller first). That didn’t work, so used the uninstaller again and put the stable release of flash 9 back and now the upload works fine for me

Instructions

to solve upload problem in magento need to replace flash with the flash 9 standard release

uninstall first (quit all browsers before running and remove any external drives ipod etc):

then install 9 (quit all browsers before running):

Check this thread http://www.magentocommerce.com/boards/viewthread/4980/

May have something to do with your .htaccess file and directory protection.

To anyone that has a HTTP upload error AND has a password protected store directory (for under construction reasons):
remove the directory password protection and you’ll be able to upload your files again! That was what happened to me. :)

@sil Password protection was also my problem. Thanks for the hint!

I’m not sure if I have the same problem,
the upload works fine, but then , after upload, i get the http error.

was that the same with you guys?

hii..proteinedieet
try to add php.ini file in ur root folder

I copied a php.ini file that was in the root of the server (public_html), to the public_html/magento root folder
but no succes
still uploads, but then the error

ok, a friend of mine who has a Mac, logged in and he could upload just fine, on 2 different macs (he has no winwdows pc, as most macies don’t)
Ive tried now on a windows XP pc, en new win7 desktop, an brand new win7 laptop, and a XP tablet pc, both with firefox and explorer, and updated the flash
i could not upload imaged (that is, i could upload, but then the http error shows.)
I feel this problem has to be looked in to
