When I try to upload a gif file using my v1.11.0 MediaWiki, I get the following error message:
"The upload directory (public) is not writable by the webserver. Retrieved from "http://wiki-ms-0-1/f15mp/index.php?title=Special:Upload" http://wiki-ms-0-1/f15mp/index.php?title=Special:Upload "
However, I don't have any directory named "public" in my structure, actually is it the default struction, and I am trying to upload to the "images" directory.
Pls let me know if you have any suggestions.
Thanx ! Lori
Lori,
The directory name is most likely "upload" or "temp" and it should be writable by the server.

Check the permissions on wiki images directory. Does the user running the apache httpd instance ($ ps ax | grep httpd) have permission to write to images? Dan
