Problem with Imagemagick

[Maverick]

hi,

i'm experiencing problems with imagemagick. every time i upload a picture into the media database, i get the error message:

"Konnte folgendes Programm nicht ausführen: "/var/www/xxx/html/interrail/imagemagick-4.2.9/convert -antialias -resize '110x110>' '/var/www/xxx/html/interrail/uploads/xxx.JPG' '/var/www/xxx/html/interrail/uploads/xxx.serendipityThumb.JPG'", Fehlermeldung: , Rückgabewert: 10"

for those of you who are not germans :
"Konnte folgendes Programm nicht ausführen" means "Unable to execute the following application"
"Fehlermeldung" menas "Error Message"
"Rückgabewert" means "Return Value"

i also changed the mode of the imagemagick directory and its files to 0777. but nothing works.
the picture file is being uploaded though. but there's no thumbnail.

and i also checked the path to the imagemagick-directory in the configuration menue several times.

i don't know what else to do??

i'm thankful for any advice.

In that case, it sounds like it's executing ImageMagick, but that is returning an error 10. I tried to figure out what that was without source diving, but holy cow! that's the worst-documented program I ever saw.

We generally prefer to use the GD library, anyway. Any chance you can switch while we work this out?

Well, i guess i'll try to switch to GD. Hope that works.

Thanks in advance for your support. I hope you'll figure it out.

Hmmm. There are lots of people complaining about the lack of a return value table in ImageMagick.

Could you create a small PHP for me, called "convert_test.php", upload it to your server, and run it? The contents should be almost identical to your error message, with the addition of a -debug flag:

Code: Select all

<?php
system(
"/var/www/xxx/html/interrail/imagemagick-4.2.9/convert -debug all -antialias -resize '110x110' '/var/www/xxx/html/interrail/uploads/xxx.JPG' '/var/www/xxx/html/interrail/uploads/xxx.serendipityThumb.JPG'");
?>

That might give us some better information on what return value 10 means.
