Have you enabled uploading and stuff in LocalSettings.php ?

Thanks Manfred, I think I've enabled uploading in LocalSettings.php with
the following lines:

$wgDisableUploads = false;
$wgUploadPath = "$wgScriptPath/images";
$wgUploadDirectory = "$IP/images";

There are other indicators of problems related to images.

Images don't show up when I try to include an inline image on a page.
No images show up in special pages -> image list

But if I change the logo to a .jpg I put in wiki/images it displays.

Could all of this point to an incompatibility with php 4.2.2? Or does it
sound more like a simple configuration problem?

The only line my php.ini that seems relevant is: file_uploads = On.

upload_tmp_dir is not set.

Could an Apache configuration setting cause this?

Thanks again

I forgot to mention that register_globals is set to On (php.ini) for
another application that we are running.

From the Readme:
---snip

PHP

The code is written in PHP. Version 4.3.2 or higher is
recommended. There are known issues with early 4.2.x
releases.

---snap

Whether this is relevant for you. I don't know.

The images directory is writeable for the useraccount that is supposed to
store the images there, I suppose?
