Description Gregor Hagedorn 2013-01-11 21:14:23 UTC 
The file ConfirmAccount.config.php contain the lines

$wgFileStore['accountreqs']['directory'] : "{$IP}/images/accountreqs",

and

$wgFileStore['accountcreds']['directory'] : "{$IP}/images/accountcreds",

These use the default value for $wgUploadDirectory (see http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgUploadDirectory ) as a literal. Consequently ConfirmAccount fails in all cases where the upload directory differs from the default.

The bug seems to be the cause for the problem reported also here:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension_talk:ConfirmAccount#Account_confirmation_error:_Could_not_create_directory_.22mwstore:.2F.2Faccountcreds-backend.2Faccountcreds-public.2Fw.2Fwe.2Fwes.22. -- changing the lines above removes the error.
