Ever since I updated to WordPress 2.5 I started getting HTTP errors everytime I tried to upload an image. I found a very quick fix that requires a line to be added to WordPress’ .htaccess file:

  • Open your WordPress 2.5 installation in an FTP client
  • find your .htacess file (usually in ‘www’)
  • add the following line:

SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI ^/wp-admin/async-upload.php$ MODSEC_ENABLE=Off

  • then save your .htacess file and the HTTP error message should go away
