ImageMagick reads image, but imagick won't

[vanguy765]

PHP Version 5.3.3
ImageMagick 6.6.6-0 2010-11-21 Q16
The version for imagick does not show with phpinfo().

I have imagick installed and working as far as I can tell running sample code using the default image 'magick:rose'. Except..

This does not work (php) using imagick
$im = new Imagick("rose2.jpg");

This does work (php) using ImageMagick
$image="rose2.jpg";

The time-out error using imagick includes
"The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading."

Phpinfo() lists:
upload_max_filesize = 32M
Post_max_size = 32M.
max_execution_time = 30
(rose2 is a copy of the stock rose image)

How do I get imagick to read the file?
Thanks in advance.

Check the error logs from the PHP and IMagick!

For some PHP error log hints see this file in my Hints and Tips "tower"

All error reporting for php is on. All errors to the webserver's log file.
Nothing strange in the webserver's log file, except the start-up reporting entries list php 5.3.1. But, phpinfo() reports php 5.3.3.

I don't know where to find the logs for IMagick!

I would guess Imagick is not installed properly if its not showing on php.ini

This does work (php) using ImageMagick
$image="rose2.jpg";

All this is doing is reading the file name into a variable.

Try this error reporting after inserting you Imagick code.

Code: Select all

try
{
IMAGICK CODE
}

catch(Exception $e)
{
        echo $e->getMessage();
}

The code does not get a chance to execute. The program times-out.

I'm using XAMPP 1.7.3 with php replaced with the latest CV9 version. IMagick! shows up in the output of phpinfo(), and ImageMagick (correct version) shows up as a line item of IMagick!

Installing IMagick! was just a case of copying a dll and modifying my php.ini, yes? To reinstall, are you suggesting that I find a fresh dll and try again?

[Bonzo]

The problem could be the dll; I use XAMPP and I think the dll I use is 5.2.4 but I am using XAMPP with PHP Version 5.2.9

I pressume you have restarted apache after modifying the php.ini file. I did the same as you put the dll in the specified path ( can not remember where it is now ) and modified the php.ini file.

Yes, I have restarted Apache several times.

I got ImageMagic and IMagick! dll from Mikko’s blog (http://valokuva.org/?page_id=50). Is there another place to get the dll?

I had from Mikko’s blog: 2010-11-11 16:36 - php_imagick_ts.dll
I have now tried also: 2010-06-21 10:33 - php_imagick_ts.dll (with a server restart) with exactly the same results.

Thanks for your time.
