Hello,
I tried posting a few days ago... but mixed-up the email addresses. Hopefully, this one finds the right place.
I am still having a problem where the images (from the InstantCommons) disappear.
A few days ago I thought it might be related to memory. So, I upgraded the RAM from 1 GB to 2 GB.
Interesting is that if I reboot the server the problem seems to resolve -- at least temporary. I did that this morning. Disappointing is that the problem is back.
The site I am running doesn't have that much on it. It is a Debian (stable) server. The only thing other than MediaWiki (and the debian packages to run MediaWiki) is the cite-gen code ( http://librepathology.org/cite-gen/ ) for references. I cannot imagine it is the cite-gen code.
The emailed I sent before is below, as is a few snapshots from 'top' that show the memory situation this morning.
Any help would be appreciated! Michael

Hello,
I am looking for help with a problem that has arisen recently. I posted this here: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Project:Support_desk#InstantCommons_..._image... I suppose this mailing list is a better place for it.
Issue: --- The WikiCommons images on a site I am running disappeared. ---
Set-up: --- I am using the InstantCommons feature - configuration: $wgUseInstantCommons = true;
I have not configured "$wgForeignFileRepos", as described here: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgUseInstantCommons (AFAIK, a default is set by "$wgUseInstantCommons".)
I see that someone else has had this issue -- based on a message here ( https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk:InstantCommons#Why_all_the_.jpg_files_fr... ); however, no resolution is described.
I do note that there is a limit on downloads (1GB?), as described here. I don't think that I am near that.
I didn't change settings on the wiki recently. I did add the extension WikiSEO a few days ago. I cannot image this is the problem.
The wiki is here: http://librepathology.org
The version information: MediaWiki 1.23.2, PHP 5.4.4-14+deb7u14, MySQL 5.5.38-0+wheezy1 -- see http://librepathology.org/wiki/index.php/Special:Version

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

First suggestion is diable the new extension and see if that fixes it.
