This is not good. This means that the call to the tfu_upload.php is blocked before somewhere.
have you tried to use the .htaccess to disable mod_security?
Unfortunately the upload request is not visible in any browser extension like firebug, http headers so the log files on the server are the only place to look at.
Are you maybe using https with a self signed certificate?
I also found a very interesting article here:
http://www.catalysts.cc/wissenswertes/f ... c-clients/"after further investigation of the network traffic we finally found the problem! It turned out to indeed be a Mac player bug that only arises with certain webserver configurations. More specifically, our webserver had some redirection rules in place that aimed to correct broken links, enforce https, and such. The problematic rule was the one that appended a slash to all requests that addressed a directory but ommited the trailing slash, and the upload request turned out to be such a request. While the Windows version of the Flash player understood that redirect and re-uploaded the file to the new location the Mac player just dropped the connection and bailed out with that ominous i/o error."
so do you have any redirection rules?
And can you please also test on my demo if the upload fails for you?
