To see what happens, I tried to convert the file

thumb.png
It worked perfectly.
Might there be a problem related to the long file name?
I don't think so.
Try increasing the values $wgMaxShellMemory, $wgMaxShellFileSize,
$wgMaxShellTime
You can also enable debug and look for the line doTransform:Running
custom convert command xxxx to find the exact command that is being run.
Thanks. I will try all of these suggestions and report back.
However, I did some research and it appears there is a long-standing
(over 3 years) bug that reports problems producing thumbnails for large
png files (see
https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9497). This
bug is still open, so it is possible I have run up against an unresolved
problem.
