Unable to upload files

Developers
1

I’m developing a project management application that allows users to upload supporting files. I upload files using jquery ajax POST and this works in a dev environment, but I can not get this to work on my site (hosted by Hostek). The site (a subdomain) is proxied through Cloudflare.

I have tried “de proxying” the subdomain (move the proxy slider to off all relevant records in the Cloudflare DNS tab). That did not change the result.
So I de-proxied all of the rest of the records. That did not change the result.

From other posts it seems that disabling WAF might do the trick, but I can’t find where or how to accomplish this.

Is it WAF? Is it something else? What else should I try?

If you waited five minutes for DNS to propagate, and it still didn’t work, then Cloudflare is not part of this issue. de-proxying means connections go straight to your server.

@sdayman - OK thanks. If the site is not proxied, does that mean that WAF has no effect either? (i.e. I don’t need to bother with any firewall rules allowing uploads)

That is correct.

de-proxying means connections go straight to your server.
