== Image Uploading Broken ==
Since I joined the Wiki a few weeks ago, one of the things I've been wanting to do is to contribute some images for articles that are currently in need of them. Unfortunately when I tried to upload one a few weeks ago I found the uploader wouldn't work, and provided me with the following error message:
<blockquote>
Could not open lock file for "mwstore://local-backend/local-public/2/2b/KI-Dispenser.png". Make sure your upload directory is configured correctly and your web server has permission to write to that directory. See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Manual:$wgUploadDirectory for more information.
</blockquote>
At first I contacted [[User:Korovev|Korovev]] on Reddit as I'd come across them on Reddit before and noticed they are active here on the wiki. They confirmed that it wasn't just me and that the image uploader has been broken for quite a while.
I tried again today to double-check and it's still broken.
Does anyone have any idea what the issue might be or how it might be resolved?
