I am having the hardest time installing ImageMagick on my 1and1 server. I am not that great on the command line so that probably a big part of it.

I have contacted 1and1. They made me upgrade to the business package and then dropped communication. They've only directed me to the IM website for more support...

I get to the "make" command and then nothing. If there is anybody out there who can help....

What output/errors do you receive after running make ? For make to run successfully, the configure script should be run prior which creates the Makefile if all the required files/conditions are met.

Did ./configure run successfully from the ImageMagick source directory ?

Thanks for responding. I am going to check again... and get back

I am also having a problem with getting Image Magick to work with our 1and1 server. I tried installing it using the 1and1 instructions and also installed it using the Image Magick instructions.

There is the error message that I'm getting from the Perl script. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Software error:

We assume ran the configure script? If so what happened after you entered the make command. Normally you get lots of output showing each of the hundreds of ImageMagick source modules being compiled.

Yes, it took a few minutes of outputting text to completed and brought me back to the bash. I didn't see any errors at the end.

I must say 1 on 1 advertises a lot in the Mac magazines and claims to be very user friendly, but I have heard nothing but complaints about them and installing IM

Yes, for some reason 1and1 servers and ImageMagick just don't mix nicely.
