problem getting image from https://

[SamK]

I am running IM through a Windows .bat file and everything works fine except when trying to get a source image which has a https:// URL.

Error message that comes up is "unable to open image 'https://**********.jpg': invalid argument"

TIA
Sam.

ImageMagick does not support the https protocol. It does support http and ftp.

A delegate should be present however to have IM use wget, or curl to download HTTPS images. Of course you can do that yourself too.

Code: Select all

   wget -O -  https://....../image.jpg | convert - image.png
