I have issues creating thumbnails and I got some new findings when checking
the images/thumb/ folder and the Special:ListFiles page.
I found that:
Before 24 May 2016, all thumbnails can be correctly created. Every image I
uploaded had 120px, 180px, 320px, 500px, ..., 2000px thumbnails stored in
/images/thumb.
On 25 May, only 120px thumbnails can be created and stored.
After 28 July, no thumbnails were created.
(I did no uploading between 25 May and 28 July.)
Is there any thumb/ folder storage limitation? What may cause this strange
problem?
Thanks,
Jingyi

--------My originial questions--------
Hi all,
Thanks to some help about my previous thumbnails question: "I uploaded a
png image but no thumbnails created in the File page."
I have tried several methods but the thumbnails are still not working. I
still face the problems that I have neither thumbnails or preview images in
'File:' pages.
I have already installed ImageMagick in my Ubuntu.
What I have tried was to:
1. check wiki/images/thumb/ folder, but only old thumbnails are there.
(Yes, I used to have thumbnails several month ago.) No new ones that I
uploaded recently are there.
2. chowe -R root:root wiki/images/ and chmod -R 777 /wiki/images/
2. change memory consumption by increasing $wgMaxShellMemory to 409600 in
LocalSetting.php, but still no thumbnails appears.
So here are my new questions:
1. Small images (like 500kb) can sometimes have previews (but no
thumbnails). But large images always no previews. How to fix?
2. I have a strange finding. Some jpg images can show the previews in my
home computer but cannot show previews in my office computer. What may
cause that?
3. My current MW version is 1.26. And my PHP version is a little bit out of
date: 5.3.10. May this cause a problem related to previews and thumbnails?
Looking forward to your further help.
Thank you,
Jingyi
