I have a mediawiki server running on some machine and I want to upload some images to it I tried to login to that server through api (action:login) and also tried to upload through api(action:upload) with Content-Type: multipart/form-data and with proper encoding but didnt have success
Is there any other reason that I couldnt upload images as I have to use some other method to upload images

Hey I am still can not manage to upload
Is it possible with API or i need to do special:upload can you please tell me how does iit work or any link ?
It appears Wikipedia only allows autoconfirmed users to upload. You probably want to upload to Commons (commons.wikimedia.org) instead, but they also require that you be logged in to upload files. There's documentation about logging in through the API at http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Login
