 * Hello,
 * There seems to be a bug affecting the insert media, upload function. The issue
   is that when editing a page/post and uploading new media via the Add Media function,
   after selecting the file, the error “an error occurred in the upload. Please 
   try again later” is displayed. However, when refreshed, the media is uploaded
   and in the media library.
 * To rule everything else out, I tried from a default theme with everything except
   Adminimize disabled, and of course when disabling Adminimize, the media upload
   works fine again.
 * Any idea what could cause this issue? I should mention this is from any account,
   including admin and I’m not seeing any plugin settings that affect this.
 * Thanks!

 * OK – I figured it out. This issue only occurs when Active Debug Helper is checked.
   Unchecking that box cleared the error.

 * Yes, the Debug helper overlay about all others, that’s the point.
