  I can set Mediashare to upload files to local directory but when I change to upload to database. It gives no errors on the upload but the thumbnails do not display and when I click on to view the image nothing displays... it just tries and tries and tries but no images is displayed.
  
  I am using mysql 5 and PHP 5.
  
  Has anyone else experienced this? Any ideas?

  Have you added the required virtual filesystem rewrites in your .htaccess file? You need an extra one if you're using shortURLs.

  Not using shortURLs and yes I added the required line in my .htaccess
  
  Should the .htaccess be in the top directory or in the directory where Mediashare writes to? It is in the top directory.

  Should be in the top directory.
  
  How big are your images? Do you have phpMyAdmin access?

  Very small, because I am just testing but would like to have larger images.
  Yes, I have phpMyAdmin access.

  Can you see if there are any data in the records? If you browse the .._mediashare_mediadb table contents there is a column mbd_data, check if the records have data in that column. If they do, you know that the problem is probably in the fetching/displaying logic. Otherwise the problem is in the uploading.

  Yes, the data is in the database. So it looks like it is with fetching/displaying.

  Which version of Mediashare are you using and what exactly does the URL look like when you try to display an image?
  
  P.S. Is this site available on the internet?

  It seems your configuration is right and the files are in the database correctly. The problem is with the rewrite of the Mediashare virtual filesystem. If you request https://2wt4k.com/zi…qwbm9gg7te4-pre.png (a 'direct' link to display one of your images) you get a 404 error because this URL is not being rewritten to a Mediashare request.
  
  Looking in the administration/System Information/PHP Modules it seems that Apache mod_rewrite is not enabled on your server. Did you set up this server yourself? Seems it's a LINUX machine. Which distribution is your server running?

  That was it! Thank you!
  
  I just needed to enable mod_rewrite in my .htaccess file:
  
  Options +FollowSymLinks
  RewriteEngine On
  
  Thanks a million!!
