--- Comment #6 from Woozle <[email protected]> --- The problem seems to be that the form shows the necessary controls for uploading by URL even if the user does not have permission to do so, while the code for processing the form fails silently if the user does not have permission (perhaps assuming that the necessary controls would ''not'' display in this case, in which case this condition could only be the result of a deliberate hack). To reproduce this bug, then, all you have to do is have $wgAllowCopyUploads set TRUE and then attempt an upload while logged in as a user who does not have upload_by_url permission. Suggested remedy: display a message indicating that the user doesn't have the upload_by_url permission, and link to this page for further explanation: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgAllowCopyUploads -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
