The thumbnail pass-through script is returning results when being passed the wrong thumb extension. We should make sure it's tuned a little more tightly See url: the jpeg image has a .ogg extension Next, the apache server might use this wrong file extension to determine the mime type of the file.
I'm pretty sure this is actually a problem with the 404 thumb-handler scripts: http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/tools/upload-scripts/ MediaWiki here doesn't necessarily see the URL that the 404 handler is going through... we should make sure that only valid names result in a valid access.
the file http://noc.wikimedia.org/conf/httpd.conf has a few lines about the mod_mime_magic module. is this module active ? it would explain why the above .ogg file keeps being transmitted with an image mime header
Mass component change for merge of "File/Repo" and "Images and Files"
This is accounted for with the new thumb handler (which tries to avoid creating thumbnails at once place while streaming them for a different URL, which resulted in thumbnails which cannot be purged).
