New subject: [Mediawiki-l] Basic help

Hi Benjamin,

I removed those two lines from LocalSettings.php and got a different 
error message of "Could not create directory "public/1/1f"".  So it 
still can not create a directory but at least found the images 
directory.  What now?

Thanks,
Gary

  Interesting that "public" is actually
the images directory. Yeah, that's rather unhelpful behavior.  See
https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13812 (which I'm
re-adding to my to-do list).

  $wgUploadPath = true; ///< defaults to
"{$wgScriptPath}/images"
 $wgUploadDirectory = true; ///< defaults to "{$IP}/images"
$wgUploadPath and $wgUploadDirectory default to false, which allows
them to be initialized in Setup.php; setting them to true is probably
causing the odd behavior.  You actually don't need to set them at all
if you just want the defaults, so you should remove those two lines
from LocalSettings.php.
