My brand-new WordPress install was letting me upload images just fine, but would only show them to me in editor mode. Otherwise it displayed an “?” icon.<\/p>\n
After much digging and checking of file ownership\/permissions, I found the answer:<\/p>\n
My apache2 2.4.5 requires “require all granted” directive, in addition to “allow from all”.<\/p>\n
\/etc\/apache2\/sites-enabled\/wp.conf now looks like:<\/p>\n
Alias \/wp\/wp-content \/var\/lib\/wordpress\/wp-content
\nAlias \/wp \/usr\/share\/wordpress
\n<Directory \/usr\/share\/wordpress>
\nOptions FollowSymLinks
\nAllowOverride Limit Options FileInfo

\nAllow from all
\nRequire all granted
