Hi,
Maybe I overlook something basic, however, no images will work on my wiki install.
All I get to see in the page is: Image:Mediawiki.png
When I click on it, I got to the special:upload page, which tells me that uploading of images has been disabled on this wiki.
What could cause this? I'm running on mysql, php5 and IIS with mw1.8.2.
Regards,
Arjen

Image uploading is disabled by default. To enable it, change $wgEnableUploads to true in LocalSettings.php and make sure your upload directory is viewable by the users and writable by the web server.
I don't -want- to upload images, this particular images is in wiki/skins/common/images/mediawiki.png - the message is just what jou get when you click on the text. When I enter http://url/to/wiki/skins/common/images/mediawiki.png in my browser I I get to see the image just fine.
Maybe this is a rights issue, but I don't know what to look at or what to search for. My setup is deviant (IIS) so that doesn't help either.

Arjen

That's not part of the in-wiki universe and so can't be referenced via [[Image:Mediawiki.png]].
If for some reason you want to use it in the wiki, either enable uploads and upload it, or enable image URL references (possibly insecure and prone to abuse) and use the full URL.

Brion,
The code I am using is:
[[Afbeelding:mediawiki.png]]
because my locale is set to nl (Dutch). The English equivalent would be: [[Image:mediawiki.png]] I understand that putting in a URL after Image: won't work, I'm merely trying to point out that the image is there and can be accessed. The line shows up in red. [[Image:thisimagedoesntexist.png]] has the same effect.
Currently I'm trying to find out how I can debug this, it is as if my mediawiki just can't find the path to the images directory. I haven't changed anything in de configuration script, except changing InnoDB to MyISAM, but I doubt this is the problem.
Thanks for responding.

For instance, if I alter:
$wgLogo = "$wgStylePath/common/images/wiki.png"; to
$wgLogo = "$wgStylePath/common/images/mediawiki.png";
in LocalSettings.php, I get the image I'm trying to show with [[Image: mediawiki.png]]
I'm really at a loss. :) Somewhere the module handling the [[Image: ]] tags is having problems I think...

Consensus on irc://freenode.net/mediawiki is that it is not possible (full stop) to have [[Image: ]] tags browse images in a directory that haven't been uploaded. This is rather annoying because I have a lot of images to upload and just verbatim copying them would make my life a lot easier.
I guess Brion was trying to tell me this, but I didn't get it. Sorry.
