My PECL uploadprogress bar appears, but why doesn't it show any progress? I installed the PECL uploadprogress bar in php and this is working fine but when I start uploading a file it ends up getting stuck and dissapearing when the file is uploaded.

This is what i see when i start the  upload:



The file is big enough so it doesnt open/close really fast.

But it just ends up being stuck at Starting upload... and not moving the blue bar to the right when its uploading. After a while it just dissapears and says done and i can submit the form fine.

This is how i want it to look like while uploading:
Have a look at the (very old) issue # 633862. Even though it's an old issue, it includes quite a few comments that may help you to find "the clue". E.g. that it it doesn't seem to work for the more "exotic" server configurations.

Comment # 41 states this:


  Apparently secure servers also have an issue with it https:// won't work with this.


Comment # 43 in that issue also suggest the (sandbox for now)  upload_progress module, here is what that comment includes:


  I have created a little module that uses client-side JavaScript instead of server-side code to display the progress. This will finally bring upload progress to more "exotic" server configurations.
