another imagmagick problem
shaft
Anonymous
sorry guys,
ive thread through alot of threads on imagemagick and the various problems relating to it, but i cant get mine working no matter what i do.
the code:
$_CONF['max_image_width'] = 160; // In pixels
$_CONF['max_image_height'] = 120; // In pixels
$_CONF['max_image_size'] = 1048576; // 1048576 = 1MB
now according to everything ive read that should work. well, it actually does work. but it doesnt actually resize the image. log file:
4/30/2005 4:16:31 AM - Debug: File, evo 9.jpg is of mime type image/jpeg and IS an image file.
4/30/2005 4:16:31 AM - Debug: in _getImageDimensions I got a width of 800, and a height of 524
4/30/2005 4:16:31 AM - Debug: Max allowed width = 160, Image width = 800
4/30/2005 4:16:31 AM - Debug: Max allowed height = 120, Image height = 524

4/30/2005 4:16:31 AM - Debug: Image, evo 9.jpg was resized from 800x524 to 160x104
if i browse on over to C:/Web Sites/noob/images/articles/ there is two image files. 2005043004161551_1.jpg and 2005043004161551_1_original.jpg. but they are both the same picture, same file size and same dimensions. i have no idea what im doing wrong...HELP!
the only thing i can think of is permissions, but the website account has read and execute access on the imagemagick folder. so it technically works, it just doesnt resize the image even though the log file says it did.
any thoughts?

hmmm, im using win2k3.. not sure if thats important 
anyways, i can run the mogrify command from anywhere because its in the path system variable in windows.
i go into my command line tool, type in:
and it works, resizes the image to a nice thumbnail size. obviously it also works if i browse to the imagemagick directyory and run the command from there
it doesnt work if i try to use the whole line:
i also tried putting a cd in front of it.
also tried using just mogrify in the config instead of the complete path:
and also i tried swapping the slashes:
as you can see things are getting desperate
im completly lost

went looking around again... does it have something to do with the quotes in upload.class.php:
as discussed here and here
im not sure since the code is different in those examples from the code i have
Text Formatted Code
$cmd = $this->_pathToMogrify . ' -resize '. $newsize . ' "' . $this->_fileUploadDirectory . '/' . $this->_getDestinationName() . '" 2>&1';as discussed here and here

The problem may be with the space in your path to the mogrify / netpbm executables: C:/Web Sites/...
If you can not easily change that, try adding quotes around the path in the upload class:

well, i found the entry in lib_common for the path. i assume that it was only config.php and lib_common.php that had to have the path's changed, i renamed the folder WebSites....
it still doesnt work though, i even tried using your line of code with the quotation marks.
log:

5/4/2005 3:36:01 PM - Debug: Image, evo 9.jpg was resized from 800x524 to 160x104
i tried it with, and without (as in the code above) the "2>&1" bit at the end. i alse tried it with the original non quotes around the path in the upload class and with the quotes like you suggested.
also, i delete the story and make sure the images are deleted from the articles folder each time i test it... just to make sure that its not detecting those images.
dunno what else to do..
