File uploading/thumbnail problem

[registeringsucks]

I sent an email to info@phpwcms.de that has some images and some screen captures of my system. I hope this helps because I'm stumped!

[Oliver Georgi]

yes - I got it - and - I have same error. Also with images I had converted earlier. I check that right now.

OK,

I really don't know why - but on Windows you have to set the path for ImageMagick in conf.inc.php like

Code: Select all

$phpwcms["imagick_path"] = 'C:\ImageMagick';

When using ImageMagick 4.2.9 on the same machine - not neccessary. It works also without setting the path (ImageMagick path is registered in Windows PATH var.

Maybe this has to do with Windows XP ServicePack 2.

that's the way I have the path to ImageMagick specified in the config.

Probably the changes in v6 command line ordering have something to do with this?

not really (I think) - I have tested with 5.5.7-10 and exactly the same.

The article that DeXXus quoted says versions PREVIOUS to v6 command line is different. It might be the issue, but I'm not sure why some thumbnails work and some don't.

You are correct. I hadn't created any thumbnails since before upgrading to 1.1-RC4_2004-06-22.

After trying 6.0.4, and experiencing the problem... non-displayable image (thumbnail only - linked image is okay), I went back to 5.5.7 and am experiencing the same symptom that 6.0.4 produces... non-displayable image (thumbnail only - linked image is okay).

I think it has to do with XP SP2 - before installing this - on Monday evening - It has worked for 2 years

Maybe there are some incompatibilities but which...? But we have found a workaround...

My symptom is present on Windows 98SE, too. It seems like the path that PHP reports will always override the setting in "config.inc.php"?

So, having -both- installed and just changing the "config.inc.php" line still allows 6.0.4 to be seen and used first. Does that sound right?

I even renamed 5.5.7 directory to 6.0.4 and tried with same effect. I'm in a time crunch and haven't tried fresh re-installs, but will, to see what gives.

[registeringsucks]

I guess no one has come up with a solution for this. Is there anything else I can try?

[registeringsucks]

You mention XP service pack 2, but my machine is at service pack 1. It doesn't sound like that is the issue.
