done, fixed.

It appears that when read only mode ($wgReadOnly) is active, you might also see this error.

When you see this error message on pages or for some files in your file list, you can try to remove $wgReadOnly from your LocalSettings.php.

Feel free to add that paragraph

Thank you for the quick reply.

I do not have permission to edit semi-protected pages. Perhaps someone who does have permission can add the following underneath the existing paragraph of 'Unable to save thumbnail to destination':

This error can also occur when read only mode ($wgReadOnly) has been set in LocalSettings.php. You can try to remove $wgReadOnly to see if that solves the issue for you.

I have checked section 2.2.6 Unable to save thumbnail to destination and your proposal has been integrated successfully, so I close the topic. Thanks for you collaboration. -- Christian 🇫🇷 FR (talk) 08:56, 7 November 2024 (UTC)

dccwiki.org fails to generate thumbnails for svg files with the error: "Error creating thumbnail: /bin/bash: convert: command not found". I ran a which -a convert command and it responds with /usr/bin/which: no convert in (/usr/share/Modules/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/opt/golang/1.19.4/bin:/opt/go/bin). How should I get this fixed now? I have enabled ImageMagick in LocalSettings. However the CommandPath is mentioned as "/usr/bin/convert". I'd appreciate any assistance. Best regards,

You have to install imagemagick package on the host

This record appeared twice a second in err_log

To fix it just uncomment in LocalSettings.php line

$wgCacheDirectory = "$IP/cache";

Hope this will be useful.

Hi ,

I am using mediawiki 1.30 . I am facing an issue that my content which i previously put , is shown. But when I try edit the content , the edit page shows blank. I don't know. why?

I am new to media wiki. Kindly help.

Please see https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual_talk:Common_errors_and_symptoms which says "Please do not post support questions here."

The heading with {{int:sessionfailure}} does not render as a heading because it was a lost translation unit. Now it's impossible to restore as a proper heading.

It renders as a heading perfectly fine for me. Is this a problem with one of the languages? In that case which one?

Manual:Common errors and symptoms#Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in ./includes/objectcache/SqlBagOStuff.php

There's supposed to be a third-level heading instead of the bare equals signs. This even happens in the original, English, version of the page.

Ohhh, I got very confused because this heading is duplicate (you can search for "Manual:How to debug/Login problems" and it appears twice)
