Error trying to upload a profile pic

Hey everyone!

First of all it’s been ages since I used a classic forum, feels nostalgic.

The community rules say I should upload a profile picture, but I get an error when I try, something like “Sorry there was an error uploading…”.

By the way, I just tried pasting a screenshot into this post, and got the same error.

So something seems up with file uploads.

Hmm,

can you tell us from which device and browser you tried it?

Macbook
Chrome

Here is what I see in the dev console:

Request URL:
https://forum.itsallwidgets.com/uploads/create-multipart.json
Request Method:
POST
Status Code:
500 Internal Server Error
Remote Address:
15.235.86.241:443
Referrer Policy:
strict-origin-when-cross-origin

{"status":500,"error":"Internal Server Error"}

And this is what I get when trying to upload a profile picture:

Request URL:
https://forum.itsallwidgets.com/uploads/generate-presigned-put
Request Method:
POST
Status Code:
500 Internal Server Error
Remote Address:

This one I tried on Windows/Chrome

I suggest trying with a different image format and/or a smaller file size.

I’m facing the same issue. I tried both png(354 KB) and jpeg(59 KB) files, but none of them worked.

I’m currently traveling, I’ll review the error logs when I’m home next week.

Actually I found some errors in the log send to you in DM

Seems like there is a general problem, I have just tried and can not update profile pic.

yes, unfortunately we can’t upload and images at the moment. I hope @hillel will soon have time to look into it

Upload test

Image upload low works, so you can update your profile with images.

I couldn’t upload mine yesterday either, but I just tried today again, and it worked successfully.
