I did not change on my own accord any of the parameters. The last changes are: A. Switched database server a few weeks ago (did not upload images since). B. Upgraded to MW 1.6.3

From what?

See http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/FAQ#Troubleshooting in particular if from 1.4 or older.

Thanks for responding.

I've updated from version 1.5.8, so this shouldn't be it.

I've tried to add, just to test this, to "LocalSettings.php" the following:

1. "$wgMimeDetectorCommand = "file -bi";" -- tested this. Didn't work. 2. Lines like: $wgFileExtensions[] = 'pdf'; $wgFileExtensions[] = 'jpg'; $wgFileExtensions[] = 'png';

This didn't work either. BTW, I did not have a list of allowed extensions in my LocalSettings.php. The problem seems to be somewhere else, anyway.
