    I migrated my site from localhost to a server and all was working well.  At least I thought so.

    I’m using Channel Images to attach images to entries and seem to be having difficulty.  File upload prefs appear fine (similar in structure to localhost version, with appropriate changes). 

    —  Server Path to Upload Directory:  /www/eh12345/public_html/images/
    —  URL of Upload Directory:      http://www.domain.com/images/  (with and without the www. and with and without “.../uploads/”)

    When setting up the Custom Channel Fields, testing the Upload Location gives “Passed” on all tests.

    Trying to upload the images to the Entry, everything goes well until near the end of an upload (for each image) and I receive the message:  “Upload Failed:-200 MSG:503”.

    My images are 900px wide, but there is no size limit and smaller images provide the same error message.

    I’m using v2.1.3 and CI version 3.3.

    Any assistance is appreciated.

    Problem solved, I think.  I did not know that one cannot upload images if the site is “off”.  Seems like an odd requirement, particularly for sites under development.

    Hi, rlwsota. For future reference, we don’t provide direct support for third party add-ons. You’ll need to contact the author directly for support.

    But glad things are working again. Don’t hesitate to post again as needed.
