Trouble uploading images?

JLJ_ · November 19, 2014

At least three of us have had trouble uploading images in Carolyn's fall feedback thread. For all three of us -- some images will upload, while others will not, even though -- for me, and I believe for the others -- all the images are small jpg files, well within the size requirements, taken with the same camera, resized with the same software, and uploaded from the same desktop folder.

For the images the system won't upload, it says:
-----------
Bad Request

Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

------------

Seems unlikely that the problem is at our end, with three of us seeing it. It is really strange that it gives the error only for some images when all are comparable size, type, location.

Just wondered if others have been seeing this problem also -- and thought I'd mention it because, if I hadn't seen that others were getting the same message under the same circumstances (files that should upload with no problems), I'd have thought it must be something at my end.

I also wonder if this may not be limiting the feedback Carolyn is getting -- with people trying to post and giving up when getting the messages. The other two who've recently had the problem just posted their text feedback and what images would upload -- and I will, too, if there isn't any improvement -- but it's not unlikely that some might just give up.
