Description thomas.schuering 2009-07-16 11:49:27 UTC

MediaWiki seems to use 'convert' from ImageMagick.

For ImageMagick you can assign a tmp-dir via MAGICK_TMPDIR (default: '/tmp').
MediaWiki does not set that variable.

In shared-hosting situations it would be nice to have MAGICK_TMPDIR configurable.
That way each user could have his temp-files in his own space.

Currently all goes into /tmp. This can fill up a tmp-partition easily.

Should be pretty easy. 

Just make a new global (null by default) and then set the environment variable in Setup somewhere of the path is specified by the user.

WORKSFORME. Didn't realize we already did this.
