We do not distribute AIX binaries so whomever created the AIX distribution requires that you have the libXML2 delegate library installed on your system.

Under Solaris, it looks like you installed the pre-compiled Solaris binary distribution from ftp://ftp.imagemagick.org/pub/ImageMagick. If so did you read the QuickStart instructions that should come with the distribution that requires you set the MAGICK_HOME environment variable and include ImageMagick-6.2.9/bin in your execution path and ImageMagick-6.2.9/lib in your load library path.

You can add -debug configure to your command line to trace where ImageMagick is looking for its configuration files and modules. It should help you track the problem you're having.

It appears that the MAGICK_HOME environment variable is not defined. Set it to the top level ImageMagick directory.
