Error on uploading PNGs

 * MediaWiki: 1.11.1
 * PHP: 5.2.6 (cgi)
 * MySQL: 5.0.81-community
 * URL: MedRevise.co.uk

Whenever anyone tries to upload a PNG, we get this error: "The file is corrupt or has an incorrect extension. Please check the file and upload again."

Any ideas?

Images from Wikimedia Commons sometimes show, sometimes not
This error apparently comes and goes like the wind. Even at the very same time some images show and some images don't. I cannot see any logical pattern in this. Can somebody help? —87.104.58.186 08:28, 13 January 2010 (UTC)

Problems showing images on my new wiki
Pictures from Wikimedia Commons sometimes show, sometimes not. It is completely unpredictable. Very unsatisfacory indeed. Can somebody help? —87.104.58.186 08:49, 13 January 2010 (UTC)

Some of the images (from Wikimedia Commons) show, some don't. The pattern seems to be completely illogical and unpredictable. Am I really the only one to whom this has happened. What can the reason be. And how (if at all) can it be solved?

 * You will need to raise PHP's memory limit. The memory limit is set in php.ini (as memory_limit) and possibly overridden in LocalSettings.php with ini_set('memory_limit', '20M'); Platonides 15:31, 20 January 2010 (UTC)

Pictures won't show after migration

 * MediaWiki version: 1.13.0
 * PHP version: 5
 * MySQL version: ?
 * URL: http://www.mycrazytaxi.com/Saipan/mediawiki-1.13.0/index.php?title=Hauptseite

Hello, I have a functioning wiki (http://www.uss-saipan.de/mediawiki-1.13.0/index.php5/Hauptseite). I wanted to migrate to another server, so I set up a database there, installed the same wiki-version and imported the text-data from the old one. Went well, everything is there. But not the pictures. In the old wiki I have them on the same server and only wrote "http://...." and the picture showed without problems. Now I have the wiki on another server and the pics on the old one, and it won't show anything, even if its the complete link. I tried to put one of the pictures up to the new server, same result. I set it directly in the images folder of the wiki - same. I used every possible combination with [[ and without, complete and not complete URL. No picture. Don't understand this, because it worked in the old wiki (and still works). I will migrate with my whole site to the new server, but until now, it seems, this does not solve the problem. Please help, sat for hours on this now.... thanks
