Just went through something similar, but I did see thumbs on the File page in 
my case — just not where I was using them!

In my case, I had uploaded a bunch of arbitrary files, keeping their file 
names. Then I typed in the names to use via <randomimage> and <gallery>.

It turns out that half the images were named with “.jpg” and the others were 
named with “.JPG”, and I use a case-sensitive file system! I had referred to 
them all as “.jpg”, which caused the upper-case ones to be invisible.

So this particular gotcha might not apply to you.

You could try appending “?action=purge” to the URL, which *should* cause the 
thumbs to be re-generated. I think.

You can also go to your thumbs directory via your file system, and see if the 
thumbs are indeed there. They will be in “YourWikiRoot/images/thumbs”. Check 
the permissions on this directory to make sure thumbs can be read by your web 
server.
