   Oops I just figured out I posted in a resolved thread :

   http://wordpress.org/support/topic/wrong-file-url-for-existing-uploaded-images?replies=8

   Well this is not resolved...

   I have the same issue although I did not upgrade to 3.0 ! My blog is still in 2.9 and I did nothing special. But suddenly today it occured to me that all images dated 27/3/2009 or older have this issue : they are displayed neither in my media library nor in post galleries.

   Indeed, their URL contains the site directory path :

   http://www.ready.to.get.free.fr/wp-content//mnt/104/sdb/a/6/www.ready.to.get/wp-content/img_4650.jpg

   Although the URL should be simply like this :

   http://www.ready.to.get.free.fr/wp-content/img_4650.jpg

   An example of broken gallery :

   http://www.ready.to.get.free.fr/index.php/2008/05/un-soleil-estival/

   I checked the database, all is fine. So it is a WP function which is playing wrong.

   I do not remember what happened on the day until which all media are corrupt, and I do not think the items were corrupt since then - I would have seen it ! Maybe it is the day when I checked the option to organize my media in year/month folders ??

   Anyway, this has nothing to do with upgrading to WP 3.0 or multi-site.

   Could someone please help me repair this ? There are more than 1000 images involved !!

   And when you click on an image thumbnail in the gallery it opens the attachment page, where the file URL is also wrong...

   When I say that the DB is fine, I mean that a tool like this :

   http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search-and-replace/

   would change nothing, since the URLs (guid) are right in the DB.

   Seems media uploader uploads files correctly to any folder you want, but there is something wrong with some php files . Maybe functions.php ? I don't know why, when you are in subfolder blog admin panel in media tab , all thumbs are broken and the url file looks like http://www.domain.com/mainblog/blogno2/files/image.jpg and should looks like http://www.domain.com/mainblog/wp-content/uploads or eventually http://www.domain.com/mainblog/wp-content/blogs.dir/%BLOG_ID%/files/ or http://www.domain.com/mainblog/wp-content/blogs.dir//$blog_id/files

   I know everywhere write I should install WP MU in root directory. But what if it isn't possible and I just have to install WP MU in subdirectory? Which files should be edited and corrected?
