ImageMagick path problem?

[Guest]

Hello all.

I installed Serenedipity in July of 2003 to replace my static blog I had for years before. When I sucessfully installed Serendipity, I did not work with the image uploads.

Anyhow, here it is over a year later, and I would like to make use of the file uploads, but the problem is this: My hosting company does not have GD2 installed, so I'm forced to use imagemagick.

So, I've uploaded and extracted imagemagick outside of the public_html directory (../imagemagick)

I have run CHMOD 777 on imagemagick/ and also CHMOD 777 on /public_html/uploads. It shouldn't be a permissions problem.

I upload a large image, and serenedipity won't build the thumbnail, it also won't resize the orignal image.

My hosting company says they have imagemagick installed at /usr/addr/ImageMagick/bin, I tried to use that path for ImageMagick, as well with no success.

Any ideas?

Is your PHP maybe running in SafeMode or has external execution disabled?

Which Serendipity version are you using? Then I can tell you a few lines to put debugging code into...

Hi Garvin.

Actually, you had helped me out with a questions on upgrading to version v.0.7.1 recently. Which worked well, so that is the version I'm running now.

I don't think PHP is running in safe mode, at least I hope it's not. I'm paying a hosting company to worry about that kind of thing. Although I'm terribly unhappy with their service and will be leaving as soon as I get setup with another alternative.

Okay, since you're running version 0.7.1 of Serendipity, please do this:

1. Open your serendipity_functions_images.inc.php file
2. Locate the function serendipity_makeThumbnail()
3. Insert this code:

Code: Select all

    if (isset($fdim['noimage'])) {
        $r = array(0, 0);
    } else {
        echo 'imagemagick is: ' . print_r($serendipity['magick'], true) . '<br />';
        if ($serendipity['magick'] !== true) {
            echo 'Executing GDLib resizing.<br />';
            $r = serendipity_resize_image_gd($infile, $outfile, $size);
        } else {
                /*if ($serendipity["dim"] == "height") $newSize = "*x".$serendipity["thumbSize"];
                else $newSize = $serendipity["thumbSize"]."x*"; */
            $newSize = $size . 'x' . $size;
            $r = array($size, $size);
            $cmd     = $serendipity['convert'] . " -antialias -scale $newSize $infile $outfile  2>&1";
            echo 'Executing imageMagick: ' . $cmd . '<br />';
            $res     = `$cmd`;
            echo 'Got result: ' . print_r($res, true) . '<br />';
        }
        echo 'Image Routine done.<br />';
    }
[code]

instead of the previous if/else block there (starting from "if (isset($fdim['noimage'])) {").

Then please try again to upload an image, you should now get additional information.

The closest i can come to that if/else statement is

Code: Select all

if ( !isset($fdim['mime']) ) {

This is where I found it:

Code: Select all

/**
* Generate a thumbnail
**/
function serendipity_makeThumbnail($file, $size=false) {
    global $serendipity;

    if ($size === false) {
        $size = $serendipity['thumbSize'];
    }

    // Calculate name of thumbnail
    $t = serendipity_parseFileName($file);
    $f = $t[0];
    $suf = $t[1];

    $infile  = $serendipity['serendipityPath'] . $serendipity['uploadPath'] . $file;
    $outfile = $serendipity['serendipityPath'] . $serendipity['uploadPath'] . $f . '.' . $serendipity['thumbSuffix'] . '.' . $suf;
    $fdim = getimagesize($infile);

    if ( !isset($fdim['mime']) ) {
       $fdim['mime'] = serendipity_guessMime($infile);
    }

    if ($serendipity['magick'] !== true) {
        $r = serendipity_resize_image_gd($infile, $outfile, $size);
    } else {
            /*if ($serendipity["dim"] == "height") $newSize = "*x".$serendipity["thumbSize"];
            else $newSize = $serendipity["thumbSize"]."x*"; */
        $newSize = $size . 'x' . $size;
        $r = array($size, $size);
        $cmd     = $serendipity['convert'] . " -antialias -scale $newSize $infile $outfile  2>&1";
        $res     = `$cmd`;
    }

Perhaps I am looking in the wrong place?

If you really have that file with those contents, you are not using Serendipity 0.7.1!

The file in the release tarball looks different than yours. Look at the top of serendipity_functions_images.inc.php - it should read:

Code: Select all

serendipity_functions_images.inc.php,v 1.38 2004/10/29 10:11:25 garvinhicking Exp $

If that's not the case, you did something wrong when upgrading/installing Serendipity, or you have a different version...

My bad! The local image of my web site hasn't been updated since I upgraded. I'm sorry for the mistake. I'll have a chance to fix that this evening and then add your code snippet.
