I've installed Mediawiki v1.24.1 on my server which is running RHEL7. I've installed it under /var/www/foohelp/wiki. However, when I try to upload a file, I get the following error:
[f3eae72a] /foohelp/wiki/index.php/Special:Upload Exception from line 1871 of /var/www/foohelp/mediawiki-1.24.1/includes/filerepo/file/LocalFile.php: Could not acquire lock for 'User-default.png.'

If I edit /includes/filebackend/FileBackendGroup.php and modify LockManager to
'lockManager' => 'fsLockManager',
and modify permissions as follows:
chown -R apache:apache images/
chown -R 755 images/
I get the following error:
(Could not create directory "mwstore://local-backend/local-public)
I've tried most of the forums and there is no solution that seems to fix my problem. Any help would be appreciated.
Try to set tmp directory:
$wgTmpDirectory = "/var/www/tmp/";
And grant rights:
chown -R apache:apache tmp/
chown -R 755 tmp/
Also try to add global vars:
putenv("TMP=/var/www/tmp/");
putenv("HOME=/var/www");
And if you use imagemagick:
$wgImageMagickTempDir = "/var/www/tmp/";
