Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.
A clean Drupal 7 RC1 default installation.
Independent of which theme I select, when attempting to change the default logo to a custom one I only see the text "Home" instead of an actual logo. Just as an aside note, if I replace the logo.png in the theme's directory I can force my logo to display by using the "default" logo.
Enabling user pictures and uploading a picture for my user has similar results, the only thing displayed is the text "My name's picture" wherever the actual image should have been.
Thank you for any assistance and time you have to look into this.

Look that your files folder is writeable.

Aonoa CreditAttribution: Aonoa commentedWell, it has put a picture file there: sites/default/files/pictures/picture-1-1291379599.png and that files folder is owned by apache and has the proper filesystem permissions for apache. I double checked just now to make sure it is the correct picture, and indeed it is.

Aonoa CreditAttribution: Aonoa commentedI don't know if it's related or not, but I also have trouble changing color sets for the themes (e.g. bartik). If I select something else besides the default "Blue lagoon", I will end up with a site without color and even the default logo is replaced with the text "Home" again.

Aonoa CreditAttribution: Aonoa commentedI did a little further digging, and following the link: "http://www.example.domain.com/sites/default/files/styles/thumbnail/publi..." in my browser, I get an internal server 500 error from apache:
"Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.
Please contact the server administrator, [no address given] and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.
More information about this error may be available in the server error log."

Aonoa CreditAttribution: Aonoa commentedI fixed it, my apache configuration needed "AllowOverride All" for the root directory entry for drupal, instead of "AllowOverride Options" which I had mine set to. Ah well, one learns. :-)
