Imagemagick not found

[buitek]

Hi Rob,

I installed fabrik on my server and it says that I don't have imagemagick even though my host says that it is installed.
I ran phpinfo and it doesn't say anything about imagemagick.
Is that the right place to look?

Thanks
Paul

Without really knowing your setup, this is what I am thinking:

Imagemagic would show as a module in phpinfo() if it had been compiled into the PHP module. On a Linux system if this isn't there you probably have to compile PHP again with imagemagic support. some may allow you to do it as an option of the install. For instance in Gentoo it would be

USE="+imagemagik" emerge php

but you will probably have to download the sources and compile from scratch passing in an imagemagik configuration parameter to the configuration script if it doesn't find it on it's own. You will also need to install the imagemagik development headers as well to get this to compile.

If you are on a third party server (Hosted) you really can't do anything except to ask them to configure PHP to use imagemagik.

Hope that makes sense,

Andre
