Can you please post what the exact error message is.
May be Permission issues,Give permission to Upload folder
or
try
The issue was related to my server configuration not having the proper amount of memory allocated to Apache/PHP.
If anyone has this same problem, please try verifying that you have enough (64MB+) server memory allocated to Apache/PHP in your server configuration settings. You can also add this to your wp-config.php file: define(‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ’64MB’);
Add one of these codes in .htaccess:
<IfModule mod_security.c>
SecFilterEngine Off
SecFilterScanPOST Off
</IfModule>
or
# Exclude the file upload and WP CRON scripts from authentication
<FilesMatch “(async-upload\.php|wp-cron\.php|xmlrpc\.php)$”>
Satisfy Any
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
Deny from none
</FilesMatch>
or
AddType x-mapp-php5 .php (at the very top of your .htaccess file)
Check about permission

Thank you! Still not working but since I can’t get logged in to my FTP, that’s a problem for dreamhost.
if you have cPanel details then you can login from there also. For anything related to hosting you can contact your hosting provider support team.
Hi
I think maybe this is a file permissions issue, Go to your Hosting Cpanel, give full read and write. And Also increase max upload size, in php ini file. it may work

Have done everything everyone suggested above and STILL cannot upload pictures.
Installing latest version of wordpress was damn near catastrophic, although I did eventually manage it…manually as clicking the update button made no impact. None of the plugs ins that have new versions will upgrade, get same error message:
An error occurred while updating Wordfence Security: Download failed. Failed to write request to temporary file.
and
An error occurred while updating Storefront: Download failed. Failed to write request to temporary file.
You need to Manually downlod plugin and then Upload it Via FTP
Then you should definitely consider contacting your hosting support! It sounds like there could be something on their end.
I am new to wordpress, I have added a post but was not sure how to add picture and info, such as:
what Format?
What ALT text?
Title?
Description?
Caption?
why should I add these when placing a picture to my article?
Thank you
Bruce
