ImageMagick installation?

Post by stifler »

Hey guys,

my provider has an old version of the GDlib (1.6) on his server. After searching the forum I installed ImageMagick.
Better, I downloaded it as a zip, unzipped it and put all the files on my server. In the s9y config I directed to the path where the files are.
So now I can upload pics but thumbnails are not working.
I get
File logo.jpg successfully uploaded as /home/httpd/htdocs/xxx/net/uploads/logo.jpg
Unable to execute: "/home/httpd/htdocs/xxx/net/image/ -antialias -resize '100x100>' '/home/httpd/htdocs/xxx/net/uploads/logo.jpg' '/home/httpd/htdocs/xxx/net/uploads/logo.serendipityThumb.jpg'", error: , return var: 126
Anybody knows how to handle this? Did I do something wrong during my "not-real" installation?
And one last thing, do I need all the 7 MB of the .zip file or just a couple of files. I'm worried about my webspace...

Thanks!

It looks like you need to include the name of the ImageMagick executable in your configured path. The tipoff is that the command ends in a slash:
/home/httpd/htdocs/xxx/net/image/ -antialias -resize '100x100
You can't execute a directory that way, so the executable name is missing.
