cannot find image magick directory
« on: April 25, 2004, 09:37:48 am »
hello

when installing, i get this message:

The installer can not find the '/usr/X11R6/bin/convert/' directory you have specified for ImageMagick or it does not have permission to access it. Check that your typing is correct and that you have access to the specified directory.

i am positive it is at /usr/X11R6/bin/convert as another application uses it. i do not have console access to my server as I merely rent space. any suggestions?

thank you!

Try it without the 'convert/',  so your path is '/usr/X11R6/bin/'.

It has been a long time now since I did my little bit here, and have done no coding or any other such stuff since. I'm back to being a noob here

you could ask your webhost to check the permissions - the webserver/script needs execute permissions for the convert executable. Usually, if they grant you the usage of ImageMagick, they will give you this piece of information as well (or CHMOD accordingly).

Also, some users have reported that the install scriptcould not find the directory when it really was there, so they installed with GD, and then entered the path in the Config page, which worked for them.
