Inage admin module prints that it can not find imagemagick covert on apache. No thumbnails created... Path supplied by hosting techsupport is:

/usr/X11R6/bin/convert

Why could it be? Is it something missed?

I'm interested to understand this. When I asked my host to install Imagemagick they said because it was so popular they would install for all their users rather than just me. They supplied me with path

/usr/bin/convert

and it is working. Are you using a global (right word?) Imagemagick install at your host or is it installed just in your folders?

Now hen I changed the path to

/usr/X11R6/bin

image mod admin says: convert found - Ok. But still no thumbs created. And image manipulation don't work as well to.

So now why? I have Imagemagick installed globally on my host.

Well I would love to know how our two different paths work but specific to your question:

What are your paths to your images?

Mine are:

Default Image path:
/images
Default image thumb path:
/images/thumbs

And then you have to make sure you have created an "images" folder in your public_html and a "thumbs" folder in your "images" folder. And make sure the permissions make it accessible. You should be able to change the permissions of your file in the control panel. I have my persmissions as "777" though I'm not sure if that is 100% correct but it works.

Like Thai peole says: same-same. Tehere are permitions 777 too but still... it refuses to work. Seems evrything's fine, but...

For now this mod (or maybe Imagemagick itself) produces no thumb.

I just uploaded latest imege mod CVS. So maybe this will help. I'm qite confused for now.

btw: what kind of thumbs will be created (as supposed to), jpg for jpg and png for png or, say gif?

I've installed ImageMagick 5.5.7 and added the (absolute) path in the admin panel, but it doesn't see it...

My config:
- solaris 5.9
- apache 1.3.28 with php-mod, mod-ssl
- drupal 4.3.0 rc

TIA for your help !

I too have been supplied with an absolute path by my web host:

/usr/local/imagemagick-5.5.7/bin/convert

And admin/image is still saying "ImageMagick convert: DOES NOT EXIST"

Any further ideas on how to address this?

Ah. My web host tells me this path should be /usr/local/ImageMagick-5.5.7/bin/convert -- it's case sensitive. But it seems that the uppercase letters are not being retained by the module -- when I return to the config page again after saving it, they show up as lowercase again. Could this be the/a source of the problem? Should this be posted as an issue with the module?
