NOPE

That is an incorrect assumption and now tells me WHY this issue has been perpetuated with no solution FOR SO VERY LONG.

RESOLUTION to Upload Issues
WP 3.3 require PHP Support run as FastCGI Application

this was finally pointed out by member hyperpac
this is likely a Plesk control panel issue.

See post:
RESOLUTION WP3.3.x Can not Upload Media or Plugin

It really peeves me when moderators jump to assumptions or conclusions without carefully reading the post. I am not going to take the time to point out that I have documented all the tasks you suggested.

Are you getting the same question asked for different versions of WordPress, on different servers on different host with different plugins etc.

He′s probably not, but the problem is a general one. A solution is to run php as fastcgi, but that wasn′t necessarry before wp 3.3.1. And you should better give us some help than complaining about the use of threads. And yes, I do recognize that you′re are forum mod !

Indeed this was the solution. Since I was only using WP I went with defaults instead of kitchen sink configuration of my sub domain.

Resolution WordPress 3.3.x Can’t Upload files

On Plesk Control Panel
Select Domain(subdomain)
Make sure that
PHP Support is checked and set to (run as [FastCGI Application] )

Try posting your own topic.

What is that supposed to mean?

I can not Upload Files:

Opening another topic is exactly the problem SPECIFICALLY with this bug, there are too many topics open about this and no solution.

As a Test engineer I left you a detailed explanation of what I did to resolve the issue.

I specified I have two identical subdomains, one able to upload media and plugins and one not able to upload anything.

As a QA professional I am very surprised with your myopic response.

This seems a little ridiculous that a solution can not be found.

I am at my wits end, I have one subdomain installation that is plain vanilla and works fine.

On the new subdomain installation, I have

• deleted the database
• deleted entire subdomain
• installed new subdomain
• extracted new wp3.3.1
• uploaded new wp3.3.1
• created different database
• installed wp3.3.1
• tried upload (failed)

I have painstakingly looked through all directories and permissions and .htaccess. There are no differences.

If support can tell me which ACTUAL php files are used I can see if there is a diff there.

I really don’t have the time or patience but the next move is to compare files sizes between the two installations to see if I can find a diff there.

I can’t believe that there is no solution at this time that is not BLATANTLY searchable.

I really was looking forward to moving into WP from my native PHP sites.
