Media Problems
Hello,

I have an application that was working great. It is one installation but hosts multiple sites through culture and hostnames.

Everything was fine and now all of a sudden I cannot upload to the media file and thus cannot upload images through the content section either.

I am using the latest version - this is the error I receive.
```
Request error: The URL returned a 404 (not found): 
/umbraco/backoffice/UmbracoApi/Content/PostSave
with data: 
```
Note that I get this error when trying to save content with an uploaded file. With no upload everything saves as it should.

Does anyone know why this may be happening?

Hi L

What version of Umbraco are you seeing this on - Is it 7.2.2 (Just want to make sure it's what you mean by 'the latest version')? I suppose it's happening on a live site? Have you checked that the webserver is not running out of space? And it's probably a good idea to check the database server as well.

Has there been made any changes to the site before this started to happen?

Hi Jan,

I was running 7.2.1 - when I hit the problem I decided to update to 7.2.2 to try and resolve the problem. I still get the same error. I get the error on the local and live webserver (both of which use the same database)

Any ideas??

Many thanks L

Hi L

Ok, that seems weird - How did you do the upgrade?

Hi Jan,

I upgraded with Nuget. Its not a space issue. And as I said it was absolutely fine and then just stopped working - strange.

Hi L

Yeah, just trying to figure out where things might go wrong. It's always harder when one don't have the option to get the hands in the "dough" so to speak.

This is a long shot...but could you try downloading the zipped version and manually try overwriting the /bin, /umbraco and /umbraco_client folder and see if that helps any?

Also it might be worth trying to clear the backoffice cache by going to /config/ClientDependency.config and increment the version number and then recycle the app pool.

Hope this helps.

Thanks Jan,

I will try - also when I try to upload in the media section it just says *Not Found: * not found

Sorry Jan,

My fault entirely. In an effort to up the maximum request length I made some changes to the web.config ie maxRequestLength="51200"

It seems it did not like this.

Sorry for wasting your time :-(

Hi L

No need to be sorry - These thing happens and I'm just happy you managed to figure out what went wrong. It happens to all of us.

Happy coding :)
