• Upload warning
  The file is corrupt or has an incorrect extension. Please check the file and upload again.
  MediaWiki tends to misrecognize the correct Mime type while uploading files; usually the Mime type "text/plain" is being allocated instead! You may add your special file extension(s) in MimeMagic.php as a very ugly quick fix:
  
  text/plain txt doc ppt
  
  Or better, edit includes/DefaultSettings.php: $wgVerifyMimeType= false;
  
  See also my work-around on the uploading page the Word problem.
  
  
• Sorry, uploading is disabled.

  Add green line to includes/SpecialUpload.php:

  #check for htmlish code and javascript
  if( $this->detectScript ( $tmpfile, $mime ) ) {
  	if ($mime == 'text/plain') { return true; } # XX Don't be paranoid
  	return new WikiErrorMsg( 'uploadscripted' );
  }
