Hi all, I am currently trying to get file uploads to work in mediawiki 1.16.1 , but I keep getting the error message: "The upload directory (public) is not writable by the webserver". I chmodded the upload directory to 777 (yes, I am aware of the security risk), but to no avail. Does anyone know the right trick to solve this problem?
thanks, Bram The upload directory that I have set in my Localsettings.php file is: $wgUploadPath = "/mediawiki/file_uploads"; If I check http://my.webserver.com/mediawiki/file_uploads/ the folder exists. These are the file permissions for this folder: ls -lanh mediawiki/file_uploads drwxrwsrwx 2 198048 198048 2 Jan 17 17:35 . drwxrwsr-x 15 198048 198048 45 Jan 17 17:36 .. note that the apache user has id 900, but given the folder's permissions, this should still work, right? _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l
