Weird error using `convert`

[ultranerds]

Hi guys,

Got a bit of a weird problem on a fresh install of imagemagick on a VPS

I installed ImageMagick on a Cent OS 5.5 using this command:

Code: Select all

yum install ImageMagick

This went through fine, and the running:

Code: Select all

convert -v

...came up with what you expect

Howevver, now when I run a command to "resize" an image, I get an error:

Code: Select all

root@vps [~]# convert /home/ivideo/public_html/images/thumbs/1/11.png -resize 200x200 /home/ivideo/public_html/images/thumbs/1/11.png.new
convert: unable to open module file `/usr/lib/ImageMagick-6.2.8/modules-Q16/coders/new.la': No such file or directory.

I had a look, and sure enough the new.la file doesn't exist :/

Code: Select all

root@vps [/usr/lib/ImageMagick-6.2.8/modules-Q16/coders]# ls

BTW, just to add to this - I noticed this file IS made:

/home/ivideo/public_html/images/thumbs/1/11.png.new

...but NOT shrunk at all (its exactly the same size as the other file)

:/

Interesting - this issue goes away when you are simply trying to shrink the original image. So, doing a "cp" first to 11.png.new, and then running the resize code works!

Cheers
