Question

Uploading media thru wordpress not working

Hi, friends.

I’ve trying to upload media in wordpress either from inside an article or direct from the bibliotec, but i am not succeeding. But this is new, after a database disconnection. The droplet was restarted and tables corrected.

Thru filezilla i managed to upload the media in a directory via 777, but wordpress does not recognize the file.

I access my droplet via terminal as sudo user. I have two wordpress sites in my droplet.

In either cases i get the http error.

Someone to give a hand?

All grateful

Hi!

I discovered that in my nginx.conf the max body size came back to its original value after the reboot of the droplet. So i changed it again to 100 and i managed to upload the file thru wordpress.

Thanks
