Your PHP might have been built with the --disable-fileinfo configure argument. Finfo is included by default starting in PHP 5.3 (the minimum requirement for VaultWiki) unless it was disabled in this way. I recommend removing --disable-fileinfo from your PHP configure line and recompiling PHP.

That was the issue, not sure how it got disabled though.

When trying to attach a new file from the modal form in the editor it is not uploading the image. The "Upload new file" is also redirecting to the main wiki page, and if I try to create a new attachment from that page it throws this error:

Code:

Invalid book specified Please enter a value for the required field 'itembookid'.

I cannot reproduce the "invalid book" error when creating an attachment from the wiki index scope (using the navbar link or the create new attachment link on the wiki index itself). Additionally, the upload modal in the editor is working correctly for me.

The error sounds very strange, as books have no relation to attachments, so I would request that you submit a ticket so I can see what's really going on here.

Your continued issue is probably due to corrupt pages which are covering your index with a corrupt book.

This seems to be the case according to your /wiki/Special:AllPages page, which should not have any blank lines.
To correct this issue, there are a number of tools in the admin panel you can try:
- Wiki > Maintenance > Rebuild Counters / Caches > Remove Corrupt Content
- Wiki > Maintenance > URL Conflicts. Find the blank entry in the conflict list, and edit the conflict. Once all conflicts are gone, I don't think you should have a problem.

Marking the original issue in the OP as fixed in the next release. Attachments will be automatically disabled at installation, and it will not be possible to activate them, if PHP was compiled with --disable-fileinfo. The upgrade script for 4.0.19 should update the enabled-state appropriately for existing installations. Additionally, if PHP is recompiled in the future and fileinfo becomes disabled as a result, VaultWiki should now display a more friendly error to administrators when trying to upload an attachment (non-admins will receive a less specific error).

There's one URL conflict, and when I try to edit it it errors out with the above error.

Please do not manage corrupt entries while in debug mode. Corrupt entries are likely to contain missing indices due to their nature. In this case, the area that contained the page no longer exists. The only way to "fix" the conflicting page will be to delete it.
