is what I get when I add that line to LocalSettings.php

Without that line, the wiki works but whenever I try to upload images I get "Could not open lock file for "mwstore://local-backend/local-public/4/4b/0AICore.png"."

You are introducing a syntax error into your LocalSettings.php file. Could you paste the line that you add to your LocalSettings.php file here?

You say syntax error and I immediately realized I've been forgetting to add the ; after "images".

Now I'm back to just getting "Could not open lock file for "mwstore://local-backend/local-public/4/4b/0AICore.png"" for no reason.

Check the permissions on the images directory. The directory should be writable by the webserver.
