Upload not functioning, no error messages
I've experienced similar behavior when changing upload settings for file types. Make sure you don't have any blacklisted that shouldn't be. Additionally I would check these settings, Manual:$wgCheckFileExtensions Manual:$wgStrictFileExtensions Manual:$wgVerifyMimeType.
Note: Zip files were blacklisted in earlier versions of MW since there was concern they could be used to sneak java .jar's into your wiki (newer versions of MediaWiki check for this).
Hello, in my hosted MediaWiki 1.18 there ist just the same. Any help?
$wgEnableUploads = true;
$wgFileExtensions = array('png', 'gif', 'jpg', 'jpeg', 'mp3', 'doc', 'xls', 'apk', 'mpp', 'pdf', 'ppt', 'tiff', 'bmp', 'docx', 'xlsx', 'pptx', 'ps', 'msi', 'zip', 'rar');
$wgVerifyMimeType = false;
$wgMimeDetectorCommand = "file -bi";
$wgCheckFileExtensions = true;
$wgFileBlacklist = array();
$wgGroupPermissions['*']['read'] = false;
$wgWhitelistRead = array ("Special:Userlogin", "MediaWiki:Common.css", "MediaWiki:Common.js", "MediaWiki:Monobook.css", "MediaWiki:Monobook.js", "Spezial:Benutzerkonto_beantragen", "-");
$wgGroupPermissions['*']['createaccount'] = false;
$wgGroupPermissions['*']['edit'] = false;
Ha, found the reason. I used a shared SSL (HTTPS) and then the upload does not work. Using Mediawiki 1.18 by a HTTP Page upload works. So i checked the $wgServer and it pointed to HTTP://XYZ.dom, i changed it to $wgServer = "https://XYZ.dom"; (with "s") and all worked fine.
