Now this one is quite an experience. I have been a programmer and web designer for a time now and have been stomp encountering this problem.
I am new to wordpress so as expected, i thought uploading a picture to attach to my blogpost would be done in a flash.
But no, as it turns out, it kept saying “Http Error”. So alas, again, i thought about it overnight and as it turns out, the secret was to lower the image size.

Aside from the error message, it seems to have uploaded the file but with a uncategorized picture on the screen. Then it hit me.

I used a graphic software to lower the screen size and viola! from 2900×1800 (which was taken using my phone), I resized it to 1000×628 and it turned out ok. I was able to upload my picture.
Well the message wasn’t really specific on what i needed to do but hey, at least I got the thing to work.
Crazy issue with the world’s most used blog posting app.
