What do I do if I cannot upload a local file because ad-blocking browser extensions block the upload path of the local file?

Updated at:

This topic describes the cause and the solution to the issue that a local file cannot be uploaded because the ad-blocking browser extensions block the upload path of the local file.

Description

The upload status of the local file is displayed as blocked:other in the developer tool.

Name                Status           Type   Initiator   Size   Time
fdafsdf0.gif        405              xhr    VM70:17      5...   951 ms
0.gif?uploads=      (blocked:other)  xhr    VM190:17     0 B    5 ms

Cause

The upload path of the local file matches the rules of the ad-blocking browser extensions. As a result, the upload path is blocked and the local file cannot be uploaded. This is independent of Object Storage Service (OSS).

Solution

Check whether ad-blocking browser extensions, such as AdBlock, uBlock Origin, AdGuard, and StopAds, are enabled in the browser. If an ad-blocking browser extension is enabled in the browser, disable the ad-blocking browser extension.
