"The upload directory (/mnt/upload3/wikipedia/commons) is not writable by the webserver." I got this error msg while attempting to upload an image to commons. The upload worked on second attempt. I am not sure what to make of the error.
The same error appeared on sr: wikipedia in the late afternoon/evening UTC.
Why is this fixed? Have the errors just stopped occurring for you at the present time, or are you aware that the reason has been located and fixed? If we don't know the issue is solved, the issue is still open, and the bug should be too.
It was a simple set of shell commands Tim preformed to fix it. Apperantly this is somrthing routine... Thats what Tim told me.
Ah, okay. For the future, it's best to say where/how it was fixed (usually the revision number), so people don't get confused and know where to look if things go wrong.
I'd like to ask Tim to stop preforming routine apperant somrthings; it's not legal in most countries of the world.
I do not think shell commands are illegal anywhere even in North Korea or Iran.
I think you need to have a quick think about * your spelling * how much of a picky bastard I am * how appalling my sense of humour is * what I typed above ;)
Yea, well... I was trying to kill the joke. ;)
