Also encountered this issue in version 5,1.

Had just moved the server and cannot upload routes and redirection anymore.

If you using ghost self hosted: Workaround for me is to do a ghost update --rollback
Then you will be able to import the routes/redirections again. And if you need 5.1 you can update again after import.

Thanks for the tip, Tim.

Unfortunately, in my case, I moved the server to a freshly installed Ghost instance with DigitalOcean. There is no previously installed version to rollback to.

I wonder if ‘updating’ to an older version will work.

The fix for this is already in. There should be a patch release soon.

Thanks @Kevin. 5.1.1 fixed it for me.
