Topic on Project:Support desk

Hello,

I've read through previous threads concerning this issue and find that I am *still* unable to resolve it.

Here is the version information for the system I am running:

MediaWiki 1.19.15

PHP 5.2.5 (apache2handler)

MySQL 5.0.51a

Until recently, I was able to upload images no problem. Thumbnails appeared beautifully (after resolving a easier to fix bug). For some reason, now when I upload an image I receive the following error "Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination"

My research shows that this is a common issue for a variety of reasons for others, but it seems beyond my capacity to diagnose and resolve for myself. I'm about 8 months into this self taught MediaWiki adventure. I cannot recall if I changed some setting somewhere. (Too many late nights!) Here is what I know:

• Images files and thumbnails for previous uploads are still visible
• What I believe to be the relevant directories (/images, /thumbs, /temp) are readable, writable, and executable (777)
• LocalSettings.php seems to be properly configured

Apologies in advance if I'm not posting in the proper area. Any guidance would be most welcome.

Thanks.

Well, that may be too obvious, but in case it has been overlooked: do you have enough free space on the server to upload files? Becasue if nothing has been changed and it was working before, that's the first reason it comes to my mind. That, or a disk quota imposed by your host.

If not, set a debug log as explained in Manual:How to debug when performing an upload, and disable the log again after the test, and look at any relevant info when the error happens to see if there's more information about the cause.

I appreciate the suggestion (It's a good one!) and double checked the disk space for the site. There appears to be plenty of room. I'll try the debug next. Any other suggestions are welcome. Thanks so much.

Did you find anything yet? If you turn on the display of all errors, what do you see?
