I just installed Wordpress on an up-to-date Debian Testing system. I set everything up according to the README.Debian file. I created my sites using the /usr/share/doc/wordpress/examples/setup-mysql script.
I am experiencing the same issue as the original bug reporter. I can upload a picture to my system. The file is saved into the correct directory. But it cannot be displayed by Wordpress. Instead of showing the file I get an empty rectangle with the broken image icon in the upper right hand corner. URL: http://sycsrt.stoutner.net /etc/wordpress/config-sycsrt.stoutner.net.php <?php define('DB_NAME', 'syscrt'); define('DB_USER', 'syscrt'); define('DB_PASSWORD', 'P8XEn4rE'); define('DB_HOST', 'localhost'); define('SECRET_KEY', 'NB20QqnonGR0fM6mQbmyWwWYbgdlSQLhJKvHiUBgEI'); #This will disable the update notification. define('WP_CORE_UPDATE', false); $table_prefix = 'wp_'; $server = DB_HOST; $loginsql = DB_USER; $passsql = DB_PASSWORD; $base = DB_NAME; $upload_path = "/srv/www/wp-uploads/sycsrt.stoutner.net"; $upload_url_path = "http://sycsrt.stoutner.net/wp-uploads"; ?> Sample image is called image002.jpg and should display as a logo on the main page. Sample image is located at /srv/www/wp- uploads/sycsrt.stoutner.net/image002.jpg with file permissions of 644 (automatically created by system. Attempting to browse to either http://sycsrt.stoutner.net/wp- uploads/image002.jpg or http://sycsrt.stoutner.net/wp-uploads/ produces an error. Following the instructions given by Wayne Conrad do indeed work, but they switch the storage location of the image to /usr/share/wordpress/wp- content/uploads, which creates problems with multiple hosted Wordpress sites because all sites would be storing their pictures in the same place and could see all the other pictures from every other site.
