Hello!
Please check your dspace.log for more detail info about the case.
Might, you meet with the same as we do repeatedly, if the error
in dspace.log is like this:
2025-09-10 13:18:02,403 WARN unknown
58228b6c-78d7-44f0-934c-d85a5218489c

This is a problem of user/group write access to Tomcat/Spring
working directories as listed in the dspace.log. The Tomcat or
Spring (depending on dSpace version) must have write rights to
them, including potential original directory, if the mentioned are
just symlinks. We meet the case, that some background process,
might in Almalinux we use, changes these rights and causes the
upload error then.
Best!

I am getting an "Item Upload failed" error repeatedly, as shown in the below image. Earlier It was working fine unfortunately since last 2 days I am getting this error. Please guide me to resolve the issue at your earliest.

On our side, we have tried all possible methods, and this issue is not showing anything even in the logs. So I have failed to find a solution. I even used AI tools, but without success. The system logs do not show anything.
If there is anyone who can assist me, please let me know so we can arrange a time via my WhatsApp number(+255 656 967000). I can share AnyDesk or UltraViewer access so that you can connect and help me resolve the issue.

Since you mentioned the system logs aren't showing anything, have you checked if there were any recent changes made to the directory permissions? Specifically, please verify if the Tomcat or Spring working directories have had their write access modified recently, as this could be preventing the files from uploading even if it doesn't trigger a specific error in the dspace.log.
Best regards,
