Title: Error executing ImageMagick
Post by: bielduranweb on January 28, 2006, 07:16:23 pm

Hi.

I'm new here and I don't speak english better but I try to explain my error.

I install and creat albums with coppermine and nothing's wrong , I upload .jpg files using FTP , I download ImageMagick and instal in C:/ directory... but when I upload my .jpg in coppermine it apears this "Error executing ImageMagick - Return value: 127".

In Files and Thumbnails settings I put this :

Method for resizing images                                                      Image Magick
Path to ImageMagick 'convert' utility (example /usr/bin/X11/)     C:/ImageMagick/
Command line options for ImageMagick                                    -antialias

I don't know what's wrong 'cause I don't work with this program until today.

Thanks.

If you are running your own webserver, I recommend using GD2, since it comes bundled with PHP.  You haven't properly configured your webserver and/or installed ImageMagick correctly.

Just use GD2.

ImageMagick is a pretty straightforward install under Windows. However a mistake in the path will cause the error you are getting. ImageMagick by default installs in a folder "ImageMagick-6.2.5-Q16".

Before you give up on ImageMagick, do a search on your c drive for convert.exe, and make sure you have the path right in the cpg config. I'm wondering if you ended up installing in c:/ImageMagick/ImageMagick-6.2.5-Q16.

I speak from experience - I made that mistake myself!

I replace the name using ImageMagick in the install proces , so I have the name of "Image Magick" in my  PC. I don't know wha'ts wrong but I think thats is a problem of the config.

Should I reinstall ImageMagick again?

I should try with GD2 but my experience in PHP it's too bad.

Thanks again.

Perhaps you will need to reinstall. You say you have cpg installed on your PC -  what is the path to your cpg install?

I have several copies of cpg installed under EasyPHP on my PC. I had installed ImageMagick in the EasyPHP "www" folder, where the cpgs are installed, and it worked fine. I just tried installing ImageMagick at c:/ImageMagick, and set that path in the config of two of my test installs, and it doesn't work.

so I have the name of "Image Magick" in my  PC.

there mustn't be a space in the path to ImageMagick. Has been asked and answered often both on our board and the ImageMagick page. Make sure you have set the permissions accordingly as well. Any reason for not doing as suggested and running GD2? If you must use ImageMagick, uninstall and then re-install it. Then set up permissions accordingly. This board doesn't deal with webserver setup, there are better places to look for help on ImageMagick setup.

Side note: the coppermine dev team strongly discourages self-hosting!
