I think the mod Illori provided the link to will fix it!

I had the same issue a while back...

It probably would, provided the image was never large enough to consume more than 2GB of RAM.

Thank you kindly all. I am glad for the tips in solving this issue and learning the cause for next time.

Its confirmed - its an image upload; the original image is not large in size- only 600kb but its dimensions are around 7000x7000.

Yep, told ya ;). It's not the size, it's the dimensions ;). Tried recompressing some of the images I had problems with 10 different ways, if you don't scale it, it won't upload... well, it will, if you don't have thumbnails enabled :P :D.

BTW, is there a way to NOT save the thumbnails of the images in the Attachments dir and let SMF generate the thumbnails each time the thread is viewed?
