PHP allow_url_fopen On or Off?

Post by Glowball »

I've had two sites using ImageMagick successfully for awhile now (years). I use PHP's passthru() command to send the convert command to the server. All of a sudden, both installations have broken. The easiest one to test (basic thumbnail creation) simply doesn't create the thumbnail, with no error messages.

My host has turned allow_url_fopen off today. Is this a coincidence? What can I do to troubleshoot this? I don't know where to start, and they say they haven't changed ImageMagick. Help?

Nevermind, it looks like ImageMagick commands that have worked for years have suddenly broken today on my server. I rewrote one and it's working again. Maybe an upgrade?
