Still can not upload new photos!

Hello,

I too am having issues with uploading images. I have 40+ sites where the plugin is being used and all of them are experiencing the same issue.

When you go to Add Gallery / Images and try to upload an image, there is a little warning triangle that pops up on the line with the file and then a toast pops up that says “Upload Complete, 0 images were uploaded.” I looked in php error log and I’m not seeing anything in there. When I debug the page in Chrome though, it looks like when you load the page, there are resources missing:

GET https://*/wp-admin/jquery-1.10.2.min.map 404 (Not Found)
POST https://*/photocrati_ajax 404 (Not Found)

Then when you try to upload, the console appends this:

POST https://*/photocrati_ajax?action=upload_image&gallery_id=0&gallery_name=test 404 (Not Found)

This is a CLEAN install of WP 3.6 with Twenty Twelve Theme with ONLY NextGen Gallery 2.0.17 installed. If anyone from Photocrati would like to log in and experience this for themselves, I’m happy to provide access.

I am having the same issue. When uploading an image to any gallery I have on my website, it says the image has uploaded but then a little oval shaped pop up occurs and it says 0 images added.

When is this going to be fixed? If not soon can anyone suggest another gallery plugin to use?

@kenwiesner – You pointed out a 404 error with this file.

GET https://*/wp-admin/jquery-1.10.2.min.map 404 (Not Found)

This is a WP 3.6 bug that is likely to be fixed in WP 3.6.1. It has nothing to do with NGG.

@swiftouch – Yes, it’s a security issue. Whenever you can update WP or plugins via the UI, you are accepting weaker security than if that were not allowed. The change you made did lower you security. Whether someone will exploit that can only be known in time.

@frisco & @swiftouch – Thanks for the input and the feedback. Great information to share.

– Cais.

@frisco, is there no work around for this? We have 168 sites running NextGen gallery and NONE of them are able to upload new photos nor have they been able to for over a month. Our customers are screaming at us, we desperately need a solution. Appreciate any insight you can offer.

All the best,

Ken

Also @frisco and @photocrati, from what I’ve been reading on this matter, this is NOT a WordPress bug but rather a bug in the plugin.

@kenwiesner – My comment was related to this element of your error message:

GET https://*/wp-admin/jquery-1.10.2.min.map 404 (Not Found)

See trac ticket 24994, and that is definitely a WP error that was fixed in WP 3.6.1. However, that should not impact uploading files. (It simply generated a 404 error, which you’d only see if you cared to look.)

We do have the latest release of NGG running under WP 3.7 alpha on one of our networks, and we have no issues with uploading files. That makes me think the cause of your situation is either a plugin conflict or tied to your server setup.

Your link to the other discussion of jquery issues is interesting but possibly unhelpful, since it involves javascript from other plugins. I recommend you take a site running a default WP theme (such as Twenty Twelve or Twenty Thirteen) and make NGG the only active plugin. Then, test NGG functionality. If NGG doesn’t work in that barebones install, my next step would be to submit a bug report directly to the Photocrati people. Admittedly, they are getting a lot of these bug reports, so be patient. They’re doing a great job working through them. (And as a sidenote, we bought the premium NGG Pro as a small gesture of support because of how openly they’ve handled the 2.0 upgrade issues.)

I know a fair amount about NGG, but your best bet to get NGG issues resolved is working directly with the Photocrati team and the others that help out in these forums. Sorry to hear of your customer issues. Any discussion we might have about resolving them would have to take place outside these forums.

Hope that helps.

OK so the jQuery error is gone with 3.6.1 but there is still prob with the AJAX script for NGG. https://d.pr/i/dkaJ Not sure what is causing it but this is on a CLEAN install of WP 3.6.1 with latest NGG.

@kenwiesner – One thing struck me from your image link – are aware that the uploading workflow has changed slightly? That is, you have to specify a gallery to which you want to upload the images OR you have to specify a new gallery name. If you don’t do one or the other, nothing will upload. I raise this because your gallery name field is blank and your pull down shows you want to upload to a new gallery. Those 2 things aren’t compatible.

In my tests, attempting to upload without following that workflow would not trigger a 404 (just a 400), so that doesn’t fully explain what you’re seeing. You could check your /wp-includes/jquery folder for the jquery-migrate.js script. I suppose if that’s missing it might trigger a 404 error, but I didn’t test that. If it is missing, that’s not an NGG issue – that’s because your core update of WP wasn’t perfect, which could have been something as simple as an FTP error.

If you did follow the workflow and the migrate script is where it should be, your best bet is to send Photocrati a bug report with a link to the site. You might expedite the process by creating a user account with administrator role for their support team and including the credentials (both username & password) to log in. I don’t know what they require or will make use of, so those are just general tips.

I experience the same problem here after upgrading to WordPress 3.6.1.

Steps:
1. Add a new gallery and give it a name
2. Add files
3. Start upload

The result is:

In the chrome debug-tool I see also an error 400:

Does anyone have a suggestion what the problem can be?
Thanks in advance.

Kenneth

@hoven002: I have the same problem, no solution yet :/

I got this while using nginx. The reason is $_SERVER['PATH_INFO'] was an empty string, causing the router to not read the location correctly and serve /photocrati_ajax.

Quick fix: edit products/photocrati_nextgen/modules/router/class.router.php and replace if (isset($_SERVER['PATH_INFO'])) with if (!empty($_SERVER['PATH_INFO'])) in function get_request_uri.

@jorritschippers: Thank you! This solved the problem for me!

i got No permissions to upload images. Try refreshing the page or ensuring that your user account has sufficient roles/privileges.
just pissed of beyond belief with this plugin already ??

This problem is not permission. This problem is the plugin configuration.

Go to:

Gallery> Other options

See if this directory: wp-content/gallery/
Switch to: /wp-content/gallery/
