Thread:Project:Support desk/Upload local files from extension/reply (3)

Oh, sorry, seems like I did not read your whole post properly. ;-)

You say that you already found the functionality, which MediaWIki uses to upload images internally (Manual:ImportImages.php). However, several functions in your PHP installation are disabled so that the scripts cannot work.

Maybe there are workarounds for that case; however, as far as I know uploading images that way will just not be possible for you right now. You maybe find an extension or a patch file somewhere on the internet, which might work around these issues, but that is not likely if you ask me. The real fix is easy:

Enable the disabled functions and things will work.
