Hi!
Sorry to start a new thread when there are so many Broken Images threads, but none of the solutions seemed to help me.
Images were working fine for me, and I'm not sure when they broke, but this is my situation now:
[1] Logos and such are still fine, embedded images from Media Manager (including within Media Manager itself) are showing the placeholders for a broken link.
EDIT: I've struck through the below information because it doesn't seem to be relevant, thanks to @turnermm for pointing that out.
[2] When I try to access them directly, I get a 500 error, logs say ".../wiki/data/.htaccess: Invalid command 'Order', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration..."
[3] I noticed my host had a message about updating htaccess for apache 2.4, so I tried replacing the "Order" command
<IfModule mod_authz_host>
Require all denied
</IfModule>
<IfModule !mod_authz_host>
Order allow,deny
Deny from all
</IfModule>
...with the new, single line syntax:
<IfModule mod_authz_host>
Require all denied
</IfModule>
<IfModule !mod_authz_host>
Require all denied
</IfModule>
[4] Now trying to access the images returns a 403, logs say "...client denied by server configuration..."[/s]
I've tried a bunch of things from the broken images faq, other threads, and just wishing really hard, but nothing is fixing it. Does anyone have any new ideas, please? My wiki and all my plugins are up-to-date.
