AW: [Mediawiki-l] Upload Problem

Perhaps it's in the session management, i'll try to track this down. But files don't appear in the /images directory which is a bit confusing. -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: mediawiki-l-bounces(a)Wikimedia.org [mailto:mediawiki-l-bounces@Wikimedia.org] Im Auftrag von Con Rodi Gesendet: Freitag, 02.

I'm on a hosting service that gives me no visibility or control of the various Apache settings. I did spend a half day trying to track this down and found out the PHP session variables that hold the file parameters were not persistent after the verification page. The images were indeed being uploaded to the server, but the session variables were lost. In the midst of my debugging, things suddenly started to work. I reverted back to the original PHP code and life was wonderful. Since my immediate task was to upload a large set of images, I pressed on with that task instead of trying to figure out what was previously not working. I'm still perplexed. Unless someone at my hosting service is randomly flipping Apache parameters, I don't see why the LimitRequestBody directive is a likely candidate. Something related to session management seems more suspect.
