Hi,
i have 2.0.1 installed on our server and the following error is produced when making :
$handle=new Imagick();
$handle->readImage("test.pdf");

Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'ImagickException' with message 'Postscript delegate failed `/httpd/html/mydomain/www/test.pdf': No such file or directory' in /httpd/html/mydomain/www/test.php:5 Stack trace: #0 /httpd/html/mydomain/www/test.php(5): Imagick->readimage('test.pdf') #1 {main} thrown in /httpd/html/mydomain/www/ivo.php on line 5

The PDF is accessible, in the same directory, i can be access with fopen()...
Anybody has any idea what is the problem? THe pdf is attached, i tried sevral pdf....
Thanks a lot
Ivo

Let's start it simple: log into your server and try to execute "gs" command. Does it give you command not found? If yes, install ghostscript.

i asked the server admin to install ghostscript, so far without any modules...the problem with pdf still persists....what should be installed next?

Thanks much for your help

Hi,
finaly we got it...it was due to the ghostscript was not availabe to the script as the server uses chroot..
Thanks for your help
