Title: [Plugin: NextGen Gallery] Uploading image problems Last modified: August 19, 2016 --- # [Plugin: NextGen Gallery] Uploading image problems * [j1mmy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/j1mmy/) * (@j1mmy) * [17 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-nextgen-gallery-uploading-image-problems/) * I don’t know why this issue has occurred, but every time I want upload a single pic via the interface, it always fails to create a thumbnail. Here are the error messages: * Warning: imagecreatefromjpeg() [function.imagecreatefromjpeg]: gd-jpeg: JPEG library reports unrecoverable error: in /home/jam/public_html/site/wp-content/ plugins/nextgen-gallery/lib/thumbnail.inc.php on line 183 * Warning: imagecreatefromjpeg() [function.imagecreatefromjpeg]: ‘/home/jamal/public_html/ site/wp-content/gallery/quick-pictures/2t_photoshop-cs3-logo_0.jpg’ is not a valid JPEG file in /home/jam/public_html/site/wp-content/plugins/nextgen-gallery/ lib/thumbnail.inc.php on line 183 * Follow thumbnails could not created. * 2t_po_0.jpg (Error : Create Image failed. Check memory limit) * So all of those error messages appear, but when I checked the image was there, but not just in thumbnail form.

Check memory limit) but only with some jpg files, which were all shot with sony ericsson p990i. GIMP said “Corrupt JPEG data: 6 extraneous bytes before marker 0xd9” on all those files. Resaving them with GIMP (or any other photo editor i guess) solved it for me. * [Ivangelion](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ivangelion/) * (@ivangelion) * [16 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-nextgen-gallery-uploading-image-problems/#post-846380) * I have the same problem, which I cannot create thumbnails due to memory limit issue. * I’ve checked my system memory usage, and it is 173MB used and 850MB available. My current memory_limit in php.ini is 256M, and the wordpress 2.8.1 consumes 13.42MB. Neither totally unistalling nggallery then reinstalling it again, or even changing memory_limit to 512M solved the problem. * Please tell me what I can do. Thank you very much. * [kejabe](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kejabe/) * (@kejabe) * [16 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-nextgen-gallery-uploading-image-problems/#post-846381) * The thickbox effect has stopped working on my galleries since I upgraded to the latest version. Any ideas of what might have caused that Alex? * [kejabe](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kejabe/) * (@kejabe) * [16 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-nextgen-gallery-uploading-image-problems/#post-846382) * Forget that last message.
