Anybody know what this means?

Fatal error: Cannot instantiate non-existent class: ss_image in /myroot/include/inc_lib/imagick.convert.inc.php on line 192

I guess it is because your server doesnt have IM (imagemagic) installed - try to switch to GD instead... you can do that in conf.inc.php in the config folder

Thanks for the reply. That's my working theory at this point. I downloaded I..magick but I've yet to explore deep enough to know if I can install it in my space, or if the server host has to install it .

But the config file was already set up for GD -- I tried both one and two, and still got the same no imagick error message. It seems the message should say no GD if I'm configed to GD.

Ooops ... looks like it was the other way around -- I needed to enable I-magick, but for whatever reason, I did not have to specify a pathway, at least not to kill the error message and start uploading images.

hello

wich version did you use!?

That part of the config looks like:


$phpwcms["imagick"] = 1; //0 = GD, 1 = ImageMagick, 2 = ImageMagick 4.2.9
$phpwcms["imagick_path"] = ""; //Path to ImageMagick (default="" - none)
$phpwcms["use_gd2"] = 1; //0 = GD1, 1 = GD2


Whatever I first tried must've been whatever was the default config; I don't remember configuring anything related, though I do remember noting the image-processor-required message in the documentation and hoping my host already has it on the server.

My current status is I was able to upload images and got no more error messages, after reconfiguring this part of the config, but I don't yet know if I can resize the images and haven't yet heard from my host about what is on their server or a path to ImageMagick.

hello

change to

I seem to have the same problem as here, but I have another installation of phpwcms on the server to another website and uploading of files and use of these works just fine.
But on the first page (not updated to newest version like the other, cause I don't know how to update) I can upload files, but when trying to use them the following error comes up:

Fatal error: Cannot instantiate non-existent class: ss_image in /hsphere/local/home/sofrdk/bapt.dk/include/inc_lib/imagick.convert.inc.php on line 198

This file say this on line 198:

$image = new ss_image($imagick["image_dir"].$imagick["image_name"], "f"); //given original image

My settings are as said in here:

$phpwcms["imagick"] = 0; //0 = GD, 1 = ImageMagick, 2 = ImageMagick 4.2.9
$phpwcms["imagick_path"] = ''; //Path to ImageMagick (default="" - none)
$phpwcms["use_gd2"] = 1; //0 = GD1, 1 = GD2

But nothing works.

Maybe an upgrade to newest version will work, but how do I do that?
