Security restriction for converting PDF to JPG in IIS 6.0

[Wkidd]

I'm trying to convert a pdf file to a jpg file on windows 2003 server, IIs6.0, and asp.

Other versions
1. ImageMagick version 6.5.7.3-Q16
2. ghostscript version 8.64

Code: Select all

Command Line
C:>Convert -density 300 test.pdf test.jpg      ' OK

Program with ImageMagickObject 
<%
Set Img = Server.CreateObject("ImageMagickObject.MagickImage.1")

Img.Convert "test.gif", "test.jpg"                                   ' OK
Img.Convert "-density", "300", "test.pdf", "test2.jpg"          ' Nothing happen
%>

The page does not give me any errors but it also does not convert the pdf to jpg.
I can use asp/com to convert a png or gif to a jpg but not a pdf. And it works on command line.

I think the problem is a security restriction in IIS.

It works fine if I change guest user group to power user group of the Internet Guest Account IUSR_TEST .

I have not found anyone to solve this problem for converting PDF file to JPG file in Windows COM+ & Visual Basic and Developers Board.

What that mean is nobody can use the windows ImageMagickObject with any other languages in windows server.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The imageMagick doesn't work in IIS6.0 at all.

I think it's a same problem with other languages (ASP, PHP, ASP.NET) in IIS6.0.

Nobody has solved it in the imagemagick board and internet.

It's a big bug or doesn't support IIS ....

No answer .... no one can fix this bug ...

Do I have to give up using the Imagemagick in IIS ?

Does anyone recommend a good solution for converting from pdf, eps, or psd to jpg?

I just install the imagemagic on my IIS 6 server.
still cant get it work...
did you solve youe problem?

i'm looking now to make png tranperency from eps file that have clipping path.
i found imagemagic and i'm hopping it's going to work under my IIS 6 and my asp code.

Guys, it's wrong to conculde that Imagemagick doesn't work on IIS6. I've had it working on IIS6 for a long while. However I have problems with ghostscript with imagemagick on IIS7. Trying to find a solution now...
