Flash upload generates error 503.
This seems to be because of mod_security active at my server.
How do I deactivate mod_security in .htaccess for the Photo Album upload?

I'm having the same issue and my host is running mod_security but which files do we allow in .htaccess?

SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI ^/wp-admin/async-upload.php$ MODSEC_ENABLE=Off
That's the one for WordPress, but what about for Drupal and/or Album Photos?

503 occurs in another way, that leads to a dead end:

When Drupal is set offline (maintenance mode) I get 503, too. When it's set back online, the upload works fine.

The problem is, that you might set your site offline, test the upload, it doesn't work and you don't set it back online, BECAUSE it doesn't work. That took me quite some time to find out. And let me age for several years ;o) Because everyone talks about mod_security, Apache, .htaccess, unavailable service on IIS - whatever.

This occured on a Win2k3 with IIS6.

503 occurs also with Apache (When Drupal is set offline)

I solve this issue with this topic.

A limit problem.

The limit could come from admin/settings/uploads as "Total file size per user"
