Summary:
Thumbnails and images styles are not being created - I'm missing something.
One suspicious thing is that the directories being created for the styles take the form (use default thumbnail style as an example):
"/sites/default/files/styles/thumbnail/public/modules/image/absentfile.png"
When Drupal tries to display a missing thumbnail, it references this directory, which I assume is where the thumbnails should be stored:
"/sites/default/files/styles/thumbnail/public/default_images/absentfile.png"
In those erroneous-looking directories, there are no image files created.
There are no error codes in the log.
