I was able to fix this by upgrading/installing the php gd image library on my server. My server is running Ubuntu so it was just a matter of typing this command from the terminal sudo apt-get install php5-gd

After it installed, I restarted my Apache webserver. and the different sizes were working again when uploading images.

Hope this helps at least get you on the right track.

From what you said it sounds like you only updated the files in the wp-admin folder. You should update all the files and folders.

Whenever I upgrade I follow this basic guide
https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Upgrading_WordPress

I do as suggested and manually do the wp-content folder, so I don’t accidently mess up my themes or plugins

other than that you overwrite everything else.

I agree. There should be someway to specify the path. I have 4 different wordpress installations on my server and use one ftp user to upgrade them manually right now.

My main site is in /var/www

and the other 3 are in user folders at /home/username/public_html

It would be great to add this to the plugin updater and the wordpress upgrade options.

Here is a little update. It apparently had to do with my gd image library on the server. This is what I did to get it working on Ubuntu Server.

sudo apt-get install php5-gd

I’m also using gallery2 with the wpg2 plugin on my wordpress site. I logged directly into gallery2 and enabled the Gd plugin where as before I was just using ImageMagik.

After that I restarted apache, started a new post, uploaded an image, and now I can click on the radio buttons that were previously not working.

It looks like this issue is a server issue instead of a wordpress 2.7 issue. Something has obviously changed in 2.7 though because it was working fine on this same server with 2.6.

i wanted to give a little bump on this thread. I have also had this same problem since upgrading to 2.7. I just upgraded to RC2 last night and still only get the full size option when uploading an image. I never had this problem with 2.6. I have tried various image sizes including some large wallpaper 1280×1024 files.

In response to the last post, how can I verify that the thumbnails were created?

I am running on my own server with Ubuntu 8.04 server. It is patched and up to date with php5 and mysql5.

Any help is appreciated.
