[Urge]

When trying to install Coppermine, I get this error:

The installer found the ImageMagick 'convert' program in '/usr/local/bin/', however it can't be executed by the script.

There is something flawed with the script.  All of my permissions (file and php) are correct.  How do I know? I made a test script and it returned:

"Version: ImageMagick 6.2.3 06/02/05 Q16 http://www.imagemagick.org Copyright: Copyright (C) 1999-2005 ImageMagick Studio LLC Usage: convert..." and continues on.

The script was this:

<?php
passthru("/usr/local/bin/convert");
?>

So, why does Coppermine have a problem executing convert?

That does not execute any ImageMagick convert functions.  This is the code:

Code: [Select]

            $output = array();
            $tst_image = "{$DFLT['alb_d']}/{$DFLT['upl_d']}/im.gif";
            exec ("{$HTTP_POST_VARS['impath']}convert images/nopic.jpg $tst_image", $output, $result);
            $size = getimagesize($tst_image);
            unlink($tst_image);
            $im_installed = ($size[2] == 1);

            if (!$im_installed)
                $errors .= "<hr /><br />The installer found the ImageMagick 'convert' program in '{$HTTP_POST_VARS['impath']}', however it can't be executed by the script.<br /><br />
                                        You may consider using GD instead of ImageMagick.<br /><br />";
Make a new file, edit the above code to use your convert location (/usr/local/bin/), your location to a test image, then execute the script.

Ok, well here is what I did: Edited the code you gave me for a valid image, which resulted in:

<?php
 $output = array();
            $tst_image = "images/goliath.jpg";
            exec ("/usr/local/bin/convert images/nopic.jpg $tst_image", $output, $result);
            $size = getimagesize($tst_image);
            unlink($tst_image);
            $im_installed = ($size[2] == 1);

            if (!$im_installed)
                $errors .= "<hr /><br />The installer found the ImageMagick 'convert' program in

'{$HTTP_POST_VARS['impath']}', however it can't be executed by the script.<br /><br />
                                        You may consider using GD instead of ImageMagick.<br /><br

/>";
?>

And the resulting page was blank, so I'm assuming that meant no errors.

In install.php, after

Code: [Select]

            $output = array();
            $tst_image = "{$DFLT['alb_d']}/{$DFLT['upl_d']}/im.gif";
            exec ("{$HTTP_POST_VARS['impath']}convert images/nopic.jpg $tst_image", $output, $result);
            $size = getimagesize($tst_image);
add

Code: [Select]

            echo $DFLT['alb_d'] . ' / ' . $DFLT['upl_d'] . '<br />';
            echo $size[0] . ' / ' . $size[1] . ' / ' . $size[2] . '<br />';
Run install.php again.  Report the results.

This is the added text:

Back to the new file you made:  add this

Code: [Select]

echo 'Errors: ' . $errors;
before

Code: [Select]

?>
The page was blank because the error message was never echoed.

[Urge]

That echo didnt echo anything:

< img removed >

[kegobeer]

I don't think you understand my request: you add that echo statement to the new file you created, not install.php.

Code: [Select]

<?php
 $output = array();
            $tst_image = "images/goliath.jpg";
            exec ("/usr/local/bin/convert images/nopic.jpg $tst_image", $output, $result);
            $size = getimagesize($tst_image);
            unlink($tst_image);
            $im_installed = ($size[2] == 1);

            if (!$im_installed)
                $errors .= "<hr /><br />The installer found the ImageMagick 'convert' program in

'{$HTTP_POST_VARS['impath']}', however it can't be executed by the script.<br /><br />
                                        You may consider using GD instead of ImageMagick.<br /><br

/>";
echo 'Errors: ' . $errors;
?>

My apologies, here is the result:

Errors:

The installer found the ImageMagick 'convert' program in '', however it can't be executed by the script.

You may consider using GD instead of ImageMagick.




Which is quite odd, since if i take out that line, it shows noting at all.

Like I said, without the echo you don't know if there are errors.  Obviously, PHP can't execute the convert binary for some reason, most likely a permissions issue.  All I can say is to check out the ImageMagick forum for setup help.
