 My site with image

 Hi I just upgraded 1.12.0 to 1.13.0, I know in the FAQ there is a 
 solution FAQ but somehow it doesn't work. Even uploading a new file 
 doesn't help either, since it doesn't show up either.

 Additionally, I found that somewhere the place where the images 
 should be uploaded was changed, it used to be images/ and now it's 
 public/ I just copied all the files from images/ to public but that 
 doesn't give any joy either. 
It didn't change. It is still images on your wiki.

...
  Does this ring any bell?

 I noticed one more thing. In the database now there are zeros added 
 to images, users, usergroups and the like

 for instance

 Dorpspomp_Ruinen_08-07-1.jpg 49099 178 340 [BLOB - 1.1 KB] 8 BITMAP 
 image jpeg\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0 
The problem is not with the images. Mediawiki just doesn't know how to 
handle a file of type "image/jpeg����������������������������"
Seems your database corrupted on the update :S
Did you change table options?
What gives a DESCRIBE on those tables?
