"There was a problem uploading the file" error...

I made sure I have enough space for attachments on my forum account, but whenever I try to upload an image to a post, I get a "There was a problem uploading the file" error.  I checked my firewall settings and my DL/UL speeds are ok.  I've tried a few different images but the issue persists.  I've tried rebooting my pc and modem/router, updating Windows and my drivers, etc, but it's still happening.  Any ideas or suggestions?  Thanks in advance!

TL;DR: It's a known issue.  It's an issue with the server itself, it's hit some sort of resource quota.  In the meantime, use imgcdn.dev.

Biostem, I find I run into this same issue when trying to upload images when using privacy features. (Or privacy respecting browser forks like Librewolf.) The Invision board software throws a wobbly if it can't use canvas data to upload images, which happens to be a strong fingerprinting vector. 

 

A workaround I've found that works most of the time is to upload the image to imgur, and then use Other Media -> Insert Image from URL to include the attachment that way.
