See the following link:

And here's my solution (I uninstalled IM and reinstalled it into my home directory, that's why the paths are different from what I listed before. But this has nothing to do with what the problem was. I also changed the user from www to www2 - I added the www2 user and made a change in the httpd.conf file - but again this was part of troubleshooting and had nothing to do with the problem):

Code: Select all

putenv("MAGICK_HOME=" .$_ENV["MAGICK_HOME"]. "/Users/shafique/ImageMagick-6.4.5/");
exec('echo $MAGICK_HOME',$array);
putenv("PATH=" .$_ENV["PATH"]. "/Users/shafique/ImageMagick-6.4.5/bin");
exec('echo $PATH',$array);
putenv("DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=" .$_ENV["DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH"]. "/Users/shafique/ImageMagick-6.4.5/lib");
exec('echo $DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH',$array);
echo "<br>".print_r($array)."<br>";
exec('/Users/shafique/ImageMagick-6.4.5/bin/convert /Users/www2/IMG_0041.JPG /Users/www2/41.png 2>&1', $array);

So the problem was that my environment variables would not stay set they way that I had set them after installing IM; I have to set them each time I run the php code, as above. Note that simply using:

Code: Select all

exec( 'export $DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH="/Users/shafique/ImageMagick-6.4.5/lib" ',$array);

(as per the IM installation instructions) will NOT work; the environment variable will NOT stay set this way (at least on my Leopard 10.5 MacBook Pro). Note also it necessary that both the input and output files be in a directory that is accessible to all (I did chmod a+rw /Users/www2).

I hope this helps others!

Someone please tell me how to do it.

   putenv("PATH=" . $_ENV["PATH"] . ":/opt/php5extras/ImageMagick/bin");

<?php
  $im_path="/opt/php5extras/ImageMagick/bin"
  header('Content-Type: text/plain');
  system("exec 2>&1; $im_path/convert -version");
  system("exec 2>&1; $im_path/convert -list type");
  system("exec 2>&1; $im_path/convert -list font");
?>
