* Upload a file
* Try to upload the same file again but change the Destination filename
* You will get a warning about it being a duplicate. Click "Ignore warning and save file anyway"
* The upload fails without an error

Investigating whether this is a config issue or an actual bug in the 1.17 branch

Comment 3 Neil Kandalgaonkar 2011-02-02 00:18:27 UTC
To clarify, you first have to:

1. upload a file
2. upload an identical file, with a different filename, without checking "Ignore warnings".
3. you get the slightly-different Special:Upload page which doesn't give you the option to ignore warnings. It shows you the other file for comparison and then gives you several submit buttons.

And finally, the error:

4. Even if you click 'ignore warnings, submit anyway' you are sent back to the upload page, only now the File input is empty. The upload fails without obvious warnings or problems.
