Try Adding this to your .htaccess file
# uploaded files
RewriteRule ^files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$1 [L]
before making changes to .htaccess, please take backup for your orginal .htaccess file.

Thanks Anshu.
I made the change and uploaded .htaccess, but the issue remains.
Please make sure your httpd.conf has
<Directory>
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
Incase you dont have access to httpd.conf, please ask your hosting provider if AllowOverride is set to ALL for your account.

I have multi site WordPress installed on the same host which work, without the need for editing httpd.conf.

I have confirmed with the web host that AllowOverride is set to ALL for my account.
Can you please check if the file has been uploaded and exists in the folder?

No, the image was not there.
If I delete the bad image, and upload the same image, and edit the newly uploaded image, it doesn’t preview the image, it just shows a broken image placeholder. This is on /wp-admin/post.php?post=23&action=edit

broken image placeholder is usually when the image is not properly uploaded. It save the details to database which is why you can see that the file exists in the file system, but does not get uploaded.
Can you please check your wordpress file permissions. More details on http://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_File_Permissions.

The file does exist in the file system.
I don’t see how that could be the case if WordPress didn’t have write permissions.
However, the linkage to the file is broken.
The file permissions are fine as far as I can see.

The site was originally installed by Installatron.
I uninstalled it, and reinstalled it manually.
I enabled subdomain network manually, but the same issue remains.
