[M2.4] Product CSV Import – Validation Results: The file cannot be uploaded.

Hello all,

Odd problem, I almost never ask for help I always just like to figure it out but this one is getting the best of me unfortunately (can’t find any error logs for it, not much info on google like at all, the error is so vague…). I pray someone else has had this problem and figured it out…I have over 2k products that need importing and I seriously don’t want to redo them

I try to upload the CSV file for the product import (or any type of import on that page for that matter) but I just simply get the error: 

The file cannot be uploaded.

 

Now here’s some information:

-I have tried my own CSV from a 2.3.5 export, same error (this is my actual file I need to be able to import) (this file is 4.5mb but I have php max upload at 6mb which it states I can go up to on the import page)
-I have tried the CSV (sample file) file exported FROM 2.4.1, same error

-I have tried saving both CSV files as UTF-8, same error

-I have tried saving both CSV files as UTF-8 BOM, same error

-I have tried a 20kb zip file, same error

-I have tried a 10kb .jpg file, same error

-File size can be 1kb or 4.5mb, same error

-Even tried a 0kb blank .csv file, same error

-Blank or a path in ‘Image File Directory’, same error

 

Basically, no matter what I put in there or select for options on that page it will only give that error.

 

Now for permissions – I have successfully completed this page: https://devdocs.magento.com/guides/v2.3/install-gde/prereq/file-system-perms.html#mage-owner-create-user 100%, my files/folder show all the right ownership and permissions (using ls -al) according to those magedocs. I updated from 2.4.0 to 2.4.1 recently and it all went fine. The whole site runs correctly except for this error…

 

Any ideas why nothing will ‘upload’ there? It seems to be strictly an upload issue because it won’t even ‘validate’ anything, it gets stuck on the upload stage. What folder does it get uploaded to? I could 777 that folder temp if that would work…

 

Any help would be super appreciated! I’m trying to get this project going and these hiccups are depressing and frustrating …esp when google brings up almost nothing similar either.

 

Thank you so much in advance!
