Tried to upload a new image, got the following message:

An unknown system error has occurred. The error message is: java.lang.Exception: Failure while executing select user_id AS wiki_user_id, username AS login, username AS display_name, user_regdate AS create_date, user_lastvisit AS last_login_date, '0' AS create_ip_address, '0' AS last_login_ip_address, '0' AS remember_key, NULL AS default_locale from jforum_users where user_id = ?.

Thanks for the note. I upgraded the database drivers to fix some other errors which has introduced a couple of glitches in the forum and articles system (and potentially the gallery as well). I'll get it sorted ASAP and will post here when done. The connection I'm on at the moment limits changes to every hour or so, so debugging can be a total pain and updates slow, so apologies for the delays.

Uploading an image to the gallery might be a better solution in the meantime, and you can use various sizes from the gallery direct in the wiki too.

Trying to add a new article resulted in:

An unknown system error has occurred. The error message is: java.lang.Exception: Failure while executing SELECT topic_id as thetopic FROM jforum_topics WHERE forum_id=66 AND topic_title=? AND user_id=? ORDER BY topic_time DESC LIMIT 1.

I was able to preview the article, multiple times, while working on it, but it did not appear to like being saved.

I'm afraid that after a recent update to fix some other stuff, part of the articles system that relied on some obsolete driver code has been borked, and as such adding an article, adding an image and editing an article are currently broken. I will be fixing this as quickly as possible but it might stretch into next month.

This appears to be resolved, I was able to add a couple of new articles this morning.

Great, thanks for reporting. My apologies for not updating this thread when I put up the potential fix!
