The filetype you are attempting to upload is not allowed.

  What's the file type you are trying to upload and is it and is that file type in the "editable_asset_filetypes" "assets" key parameter in MY_fuel.php? The default value (which is found in the fuel/modules/fuel/config/fuel.php file and overwritten by the contents in MY_fuel.php) is the following:
  $config['editable_asset_filetypes'] = array( 'images' => 'jpg|jpeg|jpe|gif|png|zip|svg', 'pdf' => 'pdf|zip', 'media' => 'mov|mp3|aiff|mpeg|zip', 'assets' => 'jpg|jpeg|jpe|png|gif|mov|mpeg|mp3|wav|aiff|pdf|css|zip|svg' );
  Also, the fuel/application/config/mimes.php may not have the correct mapping for the file you are uploading. I sometimes directly debug that in the CI Upload class looking at the file_type property.

  I'm just trying to upload a regular .jpg
  
  I've pasted the snippet above in both MY_fuel.php and fuel/config/fuel.php.
  
  Still the same. How can I debug the CI Upload class.

  According the CI Upload class the upload image is: image/jpeg
  and the allowed_types are: array(7) { [0]=> string(3) "jpg" [1]=> string(4) "jpeg" [2]=> string(3) "jpe" [3]=> string(3) "gif" [4]=> string(3) "png" [5]=> string(3) "zip" [6]=> string(3) "svg" }
  
  If I set the $ignore_mime to TRUE then the file will upload.
  
  Will this be a security risk?

  Are you able to get to what line the CI_Upload::is_allowed_filetype() method is returning false at (e.g. between 885 and 923 in latest release)?

  I just got this same thing with the latest version of Fuel. Once I changed /fuel/codeigniter/libraries/Upload.php line 883 to:
  public function is_allowed_filetype($ignore_mime = TRUE)
  It worked fine.

  It returns false at the last return which means no conditions turn it to true in that method.

  @edival TQ. Now it's working fine
  In libraries/Upload.php below code is there
  public function is_allowed_filetype($ignore_mime = FALSE)
  Just I remove FALSE and changed TRUE
  public function is_allowed_filetype($ignore_mime = TRUE)
