PNG to PCL dumps core

Post by daryl »

Hi Folks,

I'm new to ImageMagick and having a problem converting a true color png image to pcl. The command I'm running and the first line of the error message follow:

/usr/bin/convert RGB_24bits_palette_color_test_chart.png RGB_24bits_palette_color_test_chart.pcl
*** glibc detected *** /usr/bin/convert: munmap_chunk(): invalid pointer: 0x0000000001a1c790 ***

After the above there is a backtrace and memory map data.

I version I am using is ImageMagick 6.5.4-7 2014-02-10 Q16 OpenMP on a Linux CentOS 6.6 system.

I've been reading the docs and tried googling and searching the forum without success. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Daryl

That version is over 6 years old, I would advise you to upgrade to a more recent version of ImageMagick.
.NET + ImageMagick = Magick.NET https://github.com/dlemstra/Magick.NET, @MagickNET, Donate

Hi Diemstra, Thanks for the info. I installed it with yum and thought it would be current. I will get a newer version.
