Non SuperUser can't upload Images: Unexpected token

[gonzz]

Hi i'm having a recurrent problem I found on this forum: when using the image uploader I get the following error on console "Unexpected token < in JSON". But I couldn't solve it with any of the other proposed solutions:

• setting debug to true
• setting $config->uploadTmpDir = dirname(__FILE__) . '/assets/uploads/';
• setting uploadTmpDir in php.ini

 

BUT This problem only appears for non superuser users (ie editors).

Running on a Digitial Ocean Server with NGINX and PHP 7.1. Version is ProcessWire 3.0.62

Note: Im using Fredi plugin, but i doubt that's the problem because I'm using it in other sites with no problem

 

Any idea how i could solve this (even with non ajax image upload) I need to sort this as fast and simple as possible

Thanks in advance

It looks like there is a PHP error message breaking the JSON - you need to go into your dev console and click on the image upload ajax call and go to the response tab.

Thanks @adrian

You made me realize I had code executing on ready.php which was embedding css in the admin page, hence the unexpected <

Others postings led me to think it was a system problem, rather than my own code.
