Warning: exec(): Unable to fork [""C:/Prog... HELP!
« on: June 24, 2004, 06:41:06 am »

Ok... this is beggining to drive me nuts LoL...

I have installed cpg 1.3.0 on my server... set the permissions for /albums and /include to 777 and now when I try and upload, it gives me this error first:

Warning: exec(): Unable to fork [""C:/Program Files/ImageMagic-5.5.7-QB/convert" -quality 80 -antialias -geometry 150x112 "D:/hshome/krhyme/krhymechild.com/flixx/cpg1.3.0/coppermine1.3.0/./albums/edit/mHTTP_temp_3126981b.jpg" "D:/hshome/krhyme/krhymechild.com/flixx/cpg1.3.0/coppermine1.3.0/./albums/edit/preview_4ca201d1.jpg""] in D:\hshome\krhyme\krhymechild.com\flixx\cpg1.3.0\coppermine1.3.0\include\picmgmt.inc.php on line 152

it says it uploads fine, but on the next screen where you place the file in an album, the thumbnail is broken...

so I try and place it anywhere and it says "File could not be placed" AHHHH!! LoL

I have spoken to my ISP a few times and they assure me that is the correct path to the Image Magik convert utility... they don't have GD so I can't use that...

I really need some help here.... I need this to get my website relaunched....

also.. here are the values for some semi important stuff:

Path to ImageMagick 'convert' utility (example /usr/bin/X11/)     C:\Program Files\ImageMagic-5.5.7-QB\
Command line options for ImageMagick    
Read EXIF data in JPEG files    Yes    No (set to no)
Read IPTC data in JPEG files    Yes    No (set to no)
The album directory *    - "albums/"
The directory for user files *    - "userpics/"
The prefix for intermediate pictures *    - "normal_"
The prefix for thumbnails *    thumb_
Default mode for directories    777
Default mode for files     777

I'd owe you guys forever if you help!!

thanks in advance!

The path to the convert executable mustn't contain spaces (you have one in "Program files"). Install ImageMagick to c:\ImageMagick\ (or make your webhost do so).
