Hi rene,
to rebuild the images you need the rights on your wikidb as admin, but these would not be saved. So you have to add the varibles
$wgDBadminuser = "root"; $wgDBadminpassword = "xxx";
Cheers

Hi,
I just installed media wiki and am trying to add some images to the site without having to upload them. I have full access to the www server so I am just copying the images to the wiki/images folder. I tried to edit some pages and selected to embed the images but I can't seem to get the images to display.
I read somewhere that I need to run the rebuildImages.php script on the shell get the images to display. I tried this but I get this error message:
Can't contact the database server: Access denied for user 'www @ localhost' (using password: NO)
any ideas?
Thanks Rene
Recommendation: Don't use root, just because...don't. Create another account will full permissions on the one database, and use that.
