My app is crashing when I try to post images in an HTTP request. I am trying to upload images to a server. The crash appears related to my autorelease pool because the crash is trapped at the [pool release] message.

Here is the crash report:

#0  0x326712f8 in prepareForMethodLookup ()
#1  0x3266cf5c in lookUpMethod ()
#2  0x32668f28 in objc_msgSend_uncached ()

The crash report says that final line of the following code is the point of the crash. (Line No. 266)

-(void)save:(id)number

    [NSThread sleepForTimeInterval:.01];

    }   
    [pool drain];           //<-------------Line 266
}

I don't understand what is causing the crash.
