Thread:Project:Support desk/Upload Problems

I've seen the problem I'm running into elsewhere in different forms, but none of the solutions seem to work for me.

I'm on a shared server (IXwebhosting) and I'm receiving the error: Could not find file "C:\WINDOWS\Temp\phpX.tmp" where X is always different. I've used the IXwebhosting instructions for setting upload_tmp_dir to the absolute path on their server of a temp directory on my site. I also have $wgUploadDirectory set to the absolute path of the images folder on my site.

If, however, I change the $wgUploadDirectory variable to a relative path ("/images"), I get a different error: "The upload directory (public) is missing and could not be created by the webserver."

The server is running windows, with PHP 5.2.12 and MySQL 5.0.45. I've uploaded Mediawiki 1.16.4.

Any ideas? Thanks ahead of time.
