Problem: Access Denied page when uploading files using SharePoint's multiple file upload interface. No details are displayed when the upload fails except the Access Denied page.
In my case, this was not related to permission on the site or document library as the Access Denied page suggests. After uploading one of the files using the single file upload interface, an illegal character message displayed. Once the illegal character was removed, bother the single and multiple file upload interfaces were able to upload the file(s) successfully. For more information about illegal/unsupported characters in SharePoint document libraries see Illegal Characters in SharePoint Document Libraries.
If a large number of files are being uploaded or migrated into SharePoint, there may be many with filenames containing illegal characters. File rename utilities allow conditional renaming of files to remove or replace characters and strings. See Bulk File Rename files to remove or replace illegal characters - allow upload/migration to SharePoint Document Library.
