It may not display because you may not have set the permissions
properly, OR you're not logged in with a password that has
authorization to upload.  You can see the code at
http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Site/PageActions?action=source.  Note where
it says

(:if auth upload:)
* %item rel=nofollow class=upload    accesskey='$[ak_attach]'%
[[{*$FullName}?action=upload | $[Attach] ]]
(:if:)

If that isn't on your own site's Site/PageActions, then you can copy
the markup from the pmwiki site's version and paste it in your own.
