[Mediawiki-l] Missing image

Thu Oct 13 15:09:20 UTC 2005

I had this recently, after an upgrade.  The only way I could fix it was to open the image from Special:Imagelist using the (desc) link, copy the name of the image from the page header and paste it in the tag on the wiki page where I was trying to display it.  Why this would work where typing in the name manually would not, or why the existing link to the image was now invalid I could not discern.
This only happened on a few pages too, not the whole site.
Bizarre, but it's problems like this that give a frisson to day.  Isn't it?  Oh, OK.

Subject: [Mediawiki-l] Missing image

I'm trying to show an image embedded in my article and I get the 
following message:
*
Missing image*
/Ccc.jpg/
Image:ccc.jpg

This is what my wiki looks like:

[[Image:ccc.jpg]]

and this is a snip from my LocalSettings.php:

$wgUploadPath       = "$wgScriptPath/images";
$wgUploadDirectory  = "$IP/images";
## To enable image uploads, make sure the 'images' directory
## is writable, then uncomment this:
$wgDisableUploads               = false;
$wgUseImageResize               = true;
# $wgUseImageMagick = true;
# $wgImageMagickConvertCommand = "/usr/bin/convert";
