Moving from one server to another. Image Magick problem.

[Sonya*]

Hello,

i am moving a project from one server to another (both are Debian). It is php script which executes with exec($cmd); an ImageMagick command. On the new server the generated images look significantly different to the old one.

The first problem is, that there are a very large spaces between the single -labels. Secondly, the generated image seems not to use RGB (-colorspace RGB ) since colors look completely different.

I have compared ImageMagick version on both servers:

Code: Select all

convert -version

Both server output the same version

Code: Select all

Version: ImageMagick 6.2.4 02/10/07 Q16 http://www.imagemagick.org
Copyright: Copyright (C) 1999-2005 ImageMagick Studio LLC

Same version but very different output. What can be the reason for it? How can I compare ImageMagick installations else? Is there any config that I have to compare and edit? What server components can cause different output?

Thank you for your help,
Sonya

I was able to figure out at least 3 missing files on my new server:

Code: Select all

/usr/lib/libMagickCore.so
/usr/lib/libMagickWand.so
/usr/lib/ImageMagick-6.4.2/modules-Q16/coders/label.so

Can somebody tell me how can I install the missing files? I am not very Linux experienced.

Thank you,
Sonya

Hello,

I need ImageMagick 6.4.2 for installation but I am not able to find the tar for the version on the public ftp. Please help me! I am not wise-versed with Linux and am not sure if the newer version will work. I just need the same configuration as on the old server and it is 6.4.2 with some additional modules listed above.

Where can I get 6.4.2? Any help is appreciated.

Thank you,
Sonya

Legacy releases of ImageMagick are available here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/ImageMagick/.

Thank you! I have downloaded the version 6.4.2 from here http://ovh.dl.sourceforge.net/sourcefor ... -10.tar.gz

I tryed to configure it with

Code: Select all

./configure --prefix=/usr --with-modules --with-png=yes --with-lcms=yes --with-tiff=yes --with-freetype=yes --with-jpeg=yes  --with-lcms=yes --with-x=yes --enable-shared --disable-static --without-magick-plus-pus

But it seems to ignore --with in the configure:
ImageMagick is configured as follows. Please verify that this configuration
matches your expectations.

Have you read http://www.imagemagick.org/script/advan ... lation.php?

Thank you, it is not easy to understand for Linux newbies. But I have managed it.

Step-by-step solution for the very beginners:

# get actual version of ImageMagick
convert -version

# uninstall old version of ImageMagick
apt-get remove imagemagick

# change to tmp
cd /tmp

# get new version of ImageMagick
wget http://ovh.dl.sourceforge.net/sourcefor ... -10.tar.gz
# unpack files
tar xvfz ImageMagick-6.4.2-1.tar.gz
#Change the directory to the newly created ImageMagick directory
cd ImageMagick-6.4.2
# configure it:
./configure --prefix=/usr

# see if PNG and Freetype are set to no after configuration, if yes
make distclean

# Install PNG Support
cd /tmp
wget http://ovh.dl.sourceforge.net/sourcefor ... .35.tar.gz
cd libpng-1.2.35
./configure --prefix=/usr
make
make install

# Install Freetype Support
cd /tmp
wget http://ftp.fifi.org/ImageMagick/delegat ... 3.8.tar.gz
cd freetype-2.3.8
./configure --prefix=/usr
make
make install

# Configure and install ImageMagick
cd /tmp/ImageMagick-6.4.2
./configure --prefix=/usr
make
make install

# If something goes wrong use
make distclean - to remove everything created by configure and make.
make uninstall - to remove all files from the system which are installed by make install

Bye,
Sonya
