Facebook picture upload failing

When adding a new picture to an album, the upload progress bar hang when the progress is completed. Anyone else is experiencing that?

When disabling the http proxy everything works fine,

I have tried to create a proxy bypass (everything) rule for:

^https?://.*\.facebook\.com.*

but that didin`t help.

Anyone?

I have no fix for this, others than using the "simple file uploader" link below the standard uploader....

I know this thread is somewhat dated, but I was experiencing this issue and I think I managed to find a fix:

Reviewing the content filter log shows that image uploads are done as a HTTP POST to upload.facebook.com, and there seems to be a lot of traffic to pixel.facebook.com/ajax/photos/waterfall and www.facebook.com/ajax/photos/waterfall when uploading as well (the latter two URLs being based on log data and not reviewing raw network traffic as the machine doesn't have tcpdump installed and I'm too lazy to put it on if I don't need it). By adding these three URLs to a list of exceptions for the content filter, the client machine can now upload photos to facebook without the uploader hanging.

Thanks a lot, I was still monitoring this thread since I still have this issue.

Could you please provide a screenshot of the URL exclusion, just to make sure I get them right.

Thanks!

I have the same problem, i disable the Proxy and everything is fine, if i add the URL to skip packet filtering it doesnt care anyway so it would be nice if someone can post correct steps or a screenshot to solve this matter.

Thanks for the reply
