Hello guys!  
I’ve just installed the upload\_progress plugin and followed the  
instructions  
but the progress bar does not get updated.

When upload starts I can read “Upload starting…” just below the  
empty progress bar, when the upload completes it reads “Upload  
finished.”  
and the progress bar turns all black.

What is really strange is that I have a lot of “Processing  
MyController#upload\_status” in the log file.

Any idea on what might be wrong with this?

Thank you.
