Hi Brion,
thank you for your clear answer (see above)... We asked our service provider and he told us to change to another server with an open mod_php, but telling us that this one has an serious security hole.
Do you see any other solution to our problem? Will there come up a fix to enable the functionality of thumb generation in another way?
I can not understand that a software like Mediawiki depends on functions that are disabled for security reasons. May there be a way to tell it to the provider that he can enable the functions without producing a security hole?
thanks, Markus

Enable those functions. If you don't control your host, ask your service provider for help.
