Legacy ImageMagick Discussions Archive

Configuration: Win XP / PHP 5.3.0 / Apache 2.2.8

We wanted to use imagick class library to create images out of PDF on the fly. With the following steps, I can't make it work:

1) Downloaded “ImageMagick-6.5.4-2-Q16-windows-dll.exe” from the link “http://imagemagick.org/script/binary-re ... hp#windows” and installed in the directory “C:\imagemagick”.

2) Downloaded “php_imagick.dll” from the link “http://valokuva.org/outside-blog-conten ... v/vc9_zts/” and I placed this DLL under my extension folder (“C:\Program Files\PHP\ext”).

3) Added “php_imagick.dll” reference in the php.ini (extension=php_imagick.dll).

4) Restarted the apache service.

5) Checked phpinfo(), imagick library is not present!! Following error is thrown in the apace error log,

PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'C:\\Program Files\\PHP\\ext\\php_imagick.dll' - The specified procedure could not be found.\r\n in Unknown on line 0


I think the problem could be the imagemagick version and php_imagick.dll, that may not be compatible with PHP 5.3.0. We also tried several other versions, but they result in errors as well!

Please advise.

I had a similar problem and luckly I found an old dll from another PC that worked OK. It would be helpful if there were old dll versions avialable.
