Other uploads seem to work fine in the live 1.16.5  I just just tried my test
1.16.5 and 1.17rc1 on a seperate machine and .jpg is having issues uploading. 
Complaining about not being able to create directory public/?/?? mode 511. 
Which I must have missed a directory change.  Is the directory documents are
stored in not "images"?  The error makes sense as I cannot seem to find a
directory "public" directory anywhere.  It is saying the error is occuring in
GlobalFunctions.php line 2179.

I'm thinking I should just make a fresh install of 1.17 now that is released. 
Then migrate the settings and data from the live wiki backup to the test
environment and go from there.  If that resolves it I will change the allowed
list and see if that appeases the end users of the wiki.  It is very possible
that trying some of the things people have done to get around the uploading
issue has caused some corruption that finially decided to show its face.    


Thanks!
