I believe MediaWiki views all uploaded files as images.

Thank you. I uploaded the image. How about files (not images)? Which directory do they go to?

Hello,
While setting up the wiki, I saw the "a value for session.save_path has not beend set in php.ini" warning. I found the only /etc/php.ini and varfied session.save_path is set to /var/lib/php/session. I also checked that appache has the group write permission to it. So I thought that was a false warning and just documented it.
Now I get the "The upload directory (public) is not writable by the webserver." Internal error while uploading n image. I relaxed the permission to the world for /var/lib/php/session and specified the full path /var/lib/php/session/image.png for upload destination. It still get the same error.
Anybody can help? Does mediawiki actually use another upload area?
