Convert using ImageMagick using PHP

[jaykappy]

please see last post...

I downloaded Ghostscript GPL 9.07 for Win 64 and installed it: http://www.ghostscript.com/download/gsdnld.html


$array=array();
echo "<pre>";
exec(" C:\inetpub\wwwroot\ImageUpload\ImageMagick-6.8.6-Q16\convert.exe uploads/17364.pdf uploads/thumbs/Test.png 2>&1", $array);
echo "<br>".print_r($array)."<br>";
echo "</pre>";


Array
(
[0] => convert.exe: Postscript delegate failed `uploads/17364.pdf': No such file or directory @ error/pdf.c/ReadPDFImage/682.
[1] => convert.exe: no images defined `uploads/thumbs/Test.png' @ error/convert.c/ConvertImageCommand/3106.
)

Looks like Ghostscript is installed OK - now at the limit of my knowledge. Hopefuly somebody else will come along soon and offer some more advice.

We both posted at the same time so our posts crossed but I still do not know about this problem.

[jaykappy]

Can i call the ghostscript .exe directly and bypass ImageMagick?

[jaykappy]

so confused..anyone know why this might be not working...I can do this with a starting image type of jpg and it works great...but try with PDF and I get the below errors.....uggggg

In the error below:
C:\Program Files\ImageMagick-6.8.6-Q16\modules\coders\IM_MOD_RL_EXE_.dll
Does nto exist in that directory...is this from another install...where shold this be and how to I get it?

Code: Select all

   $dirlist='dir /o/a:-d' ; // DOS directory list command
  echo '<b>Initial Directory Listing: </b>' .$dirlist ;
  $result = shell_exec($dirlist) ;
  echo "<pre>" .$result ."</pre>" ;

  $magick_dir = 'C:\inetpub\wwwroot\ImageUpload\ImageMagick' ; // install IM in short DOS 8.3 compatible path
  $send_cmd=$magick_dir .'\convert.exe uploads\17364.pdf -resize x100 uploads\thumbs\Test.png' ;

			$array=array(); 
			echo "<pre>"; 
			exec("convert.exe $send_cmd 2>&1", $array);  
			echo "<br>".print_r($array)."<br>";

[snibgo]

Does the command that converts from a PDF work from the prompt? If not, then that needs correcting. Otherwise, it's a server configuration problem.

[jaykappy]

Yes it works from the cmd prompt with simply : convert image.pdf image.jpg

So now we are onto Server configuration...I am testing on IIS....do you have any ideas where I can start? Much appreciated.

[snibgo]

Sorry, it's been too many years (decades?) since I used IIS.

Maybe it's worth trying a simple gs command from PHP, something like:

Code: Select all

"c:\program files\gs\gs9.07\bin\gswin64c" --help

[jaykappy]

would I exec that? like this

exec("c:\program files\gs\gs9.07\bin\gswin64c" --help);

I tried this but nothing doing

$array=array();
echo "<pre>";
exec("c:\program files\gs\gs9.07\bin\gswin64c" --help, $array);
echo "<br>".print_r($array)."<br>";
echo "</pre>";

[fmw42]

try

exec("c:\program files\gs\gs9.07\bin\gswin64c --help", $array);

[jaykappy]

did this...get this...ugggggg

$array=array();
echo "<pre>";
exec("c:\program files\gs\gs9.07\bin\gswin64c --help", $array);
echo "<br>".print_r($array)."<br>";
echo "</pre>";
echo 'DONE';

DONE

EDIT: Tried these as well...same result

exec("c:\Program Files (x86)\gs\gs9.07\bin\gswin32c.exe --help", $array);
exec("c:\Program Files (x86)\gs\gs9.07\bin\gswin32.exe --help", $array);

[jaykappy]

I can go to cmd and navigate to there Ghostscript is and run "gswin32 -h" and get a response

EDIT: If I can do this from teh command line for GhostScript and ImageMagick I am close....just dont know why it wont work with IIS and from within my PHP page.....ugggg
what could be stopping it from running or seeing the files?

[dlemstra]

Can you try to uninstall the 64bit version of Ghostscript and just install the 32bit version? I have had users of Magick.NET reporting errors when they had both installed. It might be a bug in ImageMagick.

[jaykappy]

Should I do the same with Imagemagick.....just install the 32 bit version to coincide with the 32 bit install of GS
right now I have the 64 bit version installed.

I installed the 32bit version of GS and was able to command line gswin32c -h and got a response.
What test shoudl I do inside PHP?

THanks

[jaykappy]

Got this back from another post...going to try this....

How do you reference extension ImageMagick and GhostScript in php.ini file?

To run command like this exec("c:\Program Files (x86)\gs\gs9.07\bin\gswin32 -h") from php script, you would need to configure website to run as administrator. IIS guest user does not have sufficient permission to run.

Here is an article how to install imagemagick and ghostscript

I am still working on getting PHP and the DLL installed and recognized...

1. I go to the website where they say the latest version is and its not named php_imagick.dll its called php_imagick_nts.dll
2. I dowloaded the file to my PHP folder which was on C:\Program Files (x86)\PHP\v5.3\ext (After I downloaded the dll I renamed it to php_imagick.dll)
3. I then went into the php.ini file and added this at the end
[PHP_IMAGICK]
extension=php_imagick.dll

I rebooted my machine.
Went into IIS and clicked on the website folder and opened the PHP Manager and clicked on "Check phpinfo()"
I searched this for an IMAGICK section. and could not find one.
I rebooted 2 more times, still nothing.
I even left the file name the same and added that dll as well...still nothing.

Any thoughts why its nto showing up in the phpinfo()?

From Website Help
Imagick is a PHP extension for ImageMagick. The latest version of this file works fine and can be found at file://bpsnt04/transfer/Setups/ImageMagick/php_imagick.dll.
You can find the latest version at http://valokuva.org/builds/. Be sure to download the x86 / VC9 / non-thread-safe version.
Download the file into the extensions folder for PHP, most likely c:\php\ext. See the php,ini entry extension_dir for the location on your machine.
You must now configure PHP to know about the new extension. Edit php.ini and add or uncomment the PHP_IMAGICK entry.
[PHP_IMAGICK]
extension=php_imagick.dll
