Hi, I have managed to upgrade my wiki from 1.11 to the above version although when logged in the 'Upload file' link in the 'toolbox' points me to Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upload), how can i change this so it points me to the correct upload page?

Many Thanks,

(RESOLVED) Unable to raise file upload size limit larger than 8Mb's

I edited my wiki's php.ini file to set the file upload limit to 20M. However, I'm still unable to upload files larger than 8Mb. Am I missing some essential step to raise the upload size limit cap? I would really appreciate some help with this problem.

"The upload directory (public) is missing"
I upgraded my wiki to use MW 1.14, and now users cannot upload files anymore. When files are tried to upload, the user gets redirected to a page titled "Internal error", which tells him/her the following: "The upload directory (public) is missing and could not be created by the webserver."

Where should such a file exist? --Erkkimon


 * I was running in to the same issue on my wiki after having upgraded to MW 1.14. All of my permissions looked as if they where set right, but to verify I ran the following commands under UNIX from in the images directory:
 * After that I was able to upload the files with out any issue. I think the permissions on the thumb directory was the issue.

Uploading any kind of file fails - loops back to empty upload form

 * MediaWiki version: 1.13.2
 * PHP version: 5.2.8 (cgi-fcgi)
 * MySQL version: 5.0.67-community
 * Installed Extensions:
 * ParserFunctions version: 1.1.1 (stable)
 * BoardVote version: r37462 (stable)
 * MultipleUpload version: 1.0 (stable)
 * Google Maps Extension version: 0.9.3) (beta)

I am having problems using the MediaWiki upload feature. The upload form will load fine, which I fill in with the location of a image or other allowed file type plus write a small description beneath.

The problems begin when I press the upload button, because the upload page will load up again with all fields blank. Attempting a refresh at this point in time would ask if I wanted to resend the post/get data generated from the form on the previous page.. so something is coming out of the form. I then checked the upload log, and there was no records of any uploaded files. I checked the location where the images should have been stored via FTP according to LocalSettings.php and the folder remained empty, aside from the "README" file which was there right from the word go. And yes, the folder had the correct CHMOD permissions.

I enabled error reporting via php.ini and repeated the above steps however no issues were reported either before or after the form's "upload file" button was pressed. (I hard refreshed and attempted uploading again to make sure it wasn't a cache problem too)

Also, I went ahead and turned off the extensions that were installed to check if they were causing the problem before running the above steps yet again. This wasn't the case.

Changing the skin I was using made no difference to the problem. I also tried setting $wgHashedUploadDirectory to false to see if this could have been the cause. No luck, though.

As a last resort I set $wgAllowCopyUploads to true, uploaded a file via FTP into a public directory and then brought it into the wiki that way.. again, no luck at all as it just reloaded the upload form blank.

Is anybody able to shed some light on this problem?

Uploading is disabled and whatever I do I can't set it to on

When logged in as WikiSysop (the only user on the system so far) and I try and upload an image in my Wiki (version 1.12.0) I get the following message:-

"File uploads are disabled on Systems."

I have followed the instructions at:-

mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Configuring_file_uploads

I have confirmed the following settings:-

file_uploads = On

Check Apache aliases - I have not been able to check, would this cause the above message?

www.mydomain.com/wiki/images is set to 755 I have also tried 777

Safe Mode is off

$wgEnableUploads = true;

As far as I can see there are no permissions set in LocalSettings.php in fact no variables at all with the text "permissions" in them.

$wgFileExtensions =	array( 'png', 'gif', 'jpg', 'jpeg' );

upload_max_filesize is 8Mb

Uploading large file results in an empty upload form.

 * MediaWiki version: 1.13.2
 * PHP version: 5.2.5
 * MySQL version: 5.0.51a
 * URL: (internal)

I am having trouble uploading large pdf files, smaller files work fine. When I upload a file of around 24MB, it brings me to a new upload form with all the fields empty. I checked the uploaded file log and there is nothing that hints at the file that I attempted to upload. Hitting reload also gives me a "resend" option. The 'Maximum File Size' is shown as 32MB on the page.

I have changed the following parameters in my php.ini file:

memory_limit = 256M

post_max_size = 256M

upload_max_filesize = 256M

I have also added the following variables to the LocalSettings.php file:

$wgUploadSizeWarning = 268435456;

$wgMaxUploadSize = 268435456;

I have restarted my Apache server everytime I changed these variables. Even after changing these variables the Maximum File Size stays at 32MB.

This seems to be a similar issue to what Marquisite is having, with the exception that smaller files do upload fine.

I was wondering if someone could help me with this issue as I would like to be able to upload files with sizes up to 256MB.

Thank you,

Chris

$wgUploadSizeWarning does not work

 * MediaWiki version: 1.13.3

 * MySQL version: 5.0.51a-3ubuntu5.4

I have changed the maximum filesize for uploads in my php.ini and it works. In order to warn users who are trying to upload larger files I have also changed $wgUploadSizeWarning in my LocalSettings.php but MediaWiki does not display any warning. It only reports an error message saying the uploaded file would be empty and there could be a typing error in the filename. What's wrong?

uploading files - public/9/97
Hi - I have mediawiki 1.14.0 - and I'm a bit new to this.. installed apache2triad 1.5.4 to install php, apache and mysql. apache 2.2.0 mysql 	5.0.18 PHP 	5.1.2 Everything loads fine - you can look at this at

I have been playing all up on this one problem for about 15 hours so far, and I've exhausted google and the web - well as far as I could find out. I have the same problem that a few people have had when uploading files. the damned error of Could not create directory "public/9/97".  with a different file - it's creating a different directory (or at least it's trying to) eg:public/6/63 or such.

I have been through the normal things you check and played a little bit, but I'm just after a little bit of clarification to see if I have stuffed something up somewhere. Media wiki is in E:\apache2triad\htdocs\mediawiki-     and within that folder is the 'images' folder that is supposed to be the upload folder. Here is a copy of my LocalSettings.php document.

I have recieved the error of [28-Feb-2009 17:25:27] PHP Warning: mkdir: No such file or directory in E:\apache2triad\htdocs\mediawiki-\includes\GlobalFunctions.php on line 1943 <-- from my php log, but I have no idea what this means if anything.. I have logged in safe mode and changed the permissions to allow everything on the images folder. and I have enabled file uploads in php.ini.

if( defined( 'MW_INSTALL_PATH' ) ) { $IP = MW_INSTALL_PATH; } else { $IP = dirname( __FILE__ ); }

I tried different types of files from jpg to png, zip and pdf. Configurated the LocalSettings.php and looked into the mime.types and mimemagic.php and all types, which I had tested were in this files. I tested it on a local machine an it works without problems.

Since 1.14 it isn't possible to load any zip files in the system. Do have a solution to load zip files to mediawiki?

See aslo my Localsettings.php and the orginal error message

A part of my Localsettings.php

$wgEnableUploads = true; $wgCheckFileExtensions = true; $wgFileExtensions = array('png', 'zip', 'jpg', 'jpeg', 'ppt', 'doc', 'xls', 'pdf', 'gif', 'tiff');

Error Message from IE:

Upload warning Files of the MIME type "application/zip" are not allowed to be uploaded.

Very slow uploads and non-starting uploads
Sometimes, far too often, upload slows to the point of just not working. It seems that the page gets stuck updating, nothing is uploaded. This happens via localhost as well as when logged in from an external. I have rather a lot of data to upload so this is something of an issue for me.
