Can't upload images in Joomla 1.5.22

Joomla 1.5.22 new installation, no extensions added. I've only configured the Global Configuration pages. For some reason, I can't upload any pictures, either in articles or in the media manager. "Start Upload" does nothing, it just sits there.

The only thing I could find on this was a folder permissions issue and and so I set Images and all sub-folders to 777, but that still didn't help.

Any thoughts on what could be causing 开发者_如何学Cthis and how to get it to allow for pictures to be uploaded?

First off change your folder settings back from 777 to something more secure (664 or 775). Then Prakash could be correct in that the flash uploader is not working on your system and you can disable it and use the normal file view uploader. Try that and let us know.

On global configuration, in media settings you've enabled the flash uploader which disallows to upload the files for some reason. Disable it, now you'll be allowed to upload files again
