6.6.3-2-Q16-windows-x64-dll missing wand dll

[Janzert]

After using the above windows 64bit dynamic installer attempting to run convert results in the error:

The program cannot start because CORE_RL_wand_.dll is missing from your computer. ...

Looking in the install directory the dll does indeed appear to be missing. Installing the 32bit version does appear to work and install the dll correctly. Unfortunately I need to have a 64bit dll for use with another application.

Same issue for me too.

Using Windows 7 64 bit...

We will reissue the Windows binaries hopefully within a few days to fix the problem you reported. Thanks.

I have the same error message. I'm looking forward to 64 bit updates with the missing DLL. I am having a devil of a time getting ImageMagick 32 bit (which installs and runs fine from the command line) to run properly and do resizing within my rails application and am wondering if the 64 bit version might solve my issues.

We can reproduce the problem you posted and will have a fix within in a few days. Thanks.

Thanks, the 6.6.3-4 installer includes the previously missing dll.

6.6.3.2-4-Q16-windows-x64-dll now install2 a working ImageMagick

I also have a 64bit perl version which also works nicely. it's the latest (I think) - version 5.12.1 as you can see from the output of

Code: Select all

perl -v

This is perl 5, version 12, subversion 1 (v5.12.1) built for MSWin32-x64-multi-thread
(with 3 registered patches, see perl -V for more detail)

What I really want is to use perlmagick, but even though this seems to be included it's not installing properly, no files are moved to site/... and I have no error messages to point me in the right direction

the relevant library isn't in @INC

I copied the files to what i think is the right place and added the following

Code: Select all

 use lib 'C:/Perl64/site/auto/Image/Magick';

This then fails with

Can't load 'C:/Perl64/site/auto/Image/Magick/Magick.dll' for module Image::Magick:
load_file:%1 is not a valid Win32 application at C:/Perl64/lib/DynaLoader.pm line 201.

I really don't know what's going on, but I need some guidance if i am to make any progress.

Thanks [hopefully]

I installed imagick win7 64bit xampp system following the directions of http://www.zoharbabin.com/5-steps-to-ge ... mpp-1-7-3/

I have XAMPP 1.7.3 with PHP: 5.3.1

httpd.exe Entry Point Not Found -- The procedure entry point MagikGetImageMatte could not be located in the dynamic link library CORE_RL-wand.dll

So I am past the point of CORE_RL-wand.dll missing. Did I get the wrong version? What should I do? (I'm using Eclipse PDT and XDebug but they are not running yet).

Thank you

You should check that standalone ImageMagick works:

Code: Select all

convert logo: x.png
convert x.png y.jpg

If that works, than it's a PHP issue that I can't help you with.

The key word here is "imagick" which is a pain to install. You need the correct .dll to go with the correct version of php and Imagemagick compiled by the correct version of virtual something or other.

There are a couple of post about how to install it in the Imagick section but the developers of Imagemagick did not write Imagick or maintain it. Very few people here use it and a lot of the question in the Imagick section are about how to install it. I had it installed once upgraded to Win 7, could not install it again and gave up.
