After upgrading to WordPress 2.5/WordPress 2.5.1, I couldn’t upload any pictures anymore. When I clicked on Add an Image/Choose File from the editor, a window showed up: From Computer; HTTP error… An error occurred in the upload. Please try again later. See the screenshot below:

This was so frustrated since I uploaded pictures a lot. After a couple days of searching on the Internet, I finally found a solution to this problem. Hopefully you can be benefited by this too if you have the same problem like this. Just follow the steps below to fix this problem:

Using FireFTP to download your .htaccess from your WP folder to your PC (Personal Computer). If you don’t have FireFTP, then use whatever FTP you have.

Edit your .htaccess file by inserting the following codes:

SecFilterEngine Off
SecFilterScanPOST Off

See the highlighted portion of the codes that I inserted in my .htaccess file:

# BEGIN WordPress

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /blog/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /blog/index.php [L]

SecFilterEngine Off
SecFilterScanPOST Off

}

# END WordPress

Make sure you save the .htaccess file

After you’ve done that, upload .htaccess file back to WP folder
