Hi, As a newbie in Wiki I have this question: Installing wikepedia 1.3.5 everything works fine. Only resizing images does'nt work. Uploaded images shows up in the original size. When I for example use this line [[image:picture.jpg|100px]] I get an error that something is wrong in image.php
Do I have to install something extra like ImageMagick or something else.
Hope someone will help me, Regards, Forkink wmf@xs4all.nl

Please upgrade to 1.3.6 immediately, there are security vulnerabilities in earlier versions that have been found and fixed.

You need to cut and paste the actual error message if you want anyone to be able to help you.

Thanks very much Brion for youre reply.
I reinstalled and running version 1.3.6 It is very hard to make a copy of the error message because it is partly hiding behind the menu. But please click this link http://www.videomontageforum.nl/bio/index.php/Afbeelding and you will see what I mean.
Strange thing is that I find out that I can enlarge photo's For example: I upload a small picture 50x70 and I can show it at 400x 600. But as soon as I want to show the picture smaller than the orignal size problems occure. ( i have copied the page from the dutch wikipedia for the code just to let you see what is happening)
By the way, how can I become a member of this group?
Thanks in advance for helping me. Regards, Forkink

Use view source to get at such messages more conveniently.
But please click this link http://www.videomontageforum.nl/bio/index.php/Afbeelding and you will see what I mean.

Well, that's a pretty clear error message: upgrade your libgd to 2.0 or later; if that's not convenient, install ImageMagick and set $wgUseImageMagick = true; in LocalSettings.php.

Images are not actually resized on the server when enlarging as this would simply waste server time, disk space, and bandwidth -- the file would get bigger without looking any better.

Thanks again, well I am working for several hours on it so I think I take a break now :) I installed the whole thing on a computer in my network and all works well.
So I think I have to contact my website hoster. I tried to install ImageMagick on the server but ofcourse I have no acces to the root.
I have read the manual and found out that there is a way to intall MM with a prefix but I was unable to do so. I think I have not enough knowledge to do that.
When I try to install I type './configure' and a lot of difficult text shows up. Than the manual says type 'make install' and than the file is not found.
Hmmmmmm, think I need a cup of coffe now........
Thanks anyway for helping me, Forkink wmf@xs4all.nl
