Hi guys!

I need your help! I'm trying to install imagick on my xampp 1.7.3 for MAC OSX following this tutorial. http://benford.bluhelix.com/installing- ... ith-xampp/

but i continue to have some compiling errors!

if i use ./configure NOTE: my config.m4 is editet to point to te correct files (in the same bin folder of xamppfiles)

if i use ./configure --with-imagick=/opt/local (as seen here viewtopic.php?f=18&t=18737&p=72380&hili ... mpp#p72380) I don't really know wath can i do to install this library to my PHP!

Magicwand for PHP and Imagick are two completely different APIs. If you want Imagick then you don't need the Magicwand for PHP. Furthermore, you can just install Imagemagick and run and IM command line via PHP exec() command. Other than that I am not sure I can help as I do not use any of the PHP APIs or any other API, just the command line.

I know i can rum IM via exec, but i need to test mi application with a normal execution of IM... the i would try to install it on xampp.

If magickwnd is another API, why when i try to install imagemagick into XAMPP the ./configure stops there?

there are two magickwands, one is part of imagemagick and is the C API and the other is the magickwand PHP API. Neither of these are the same as Imagick (for PHP)

I am not sure which is the issue.
