Conjure and Convert files?

I'm trying to implement some conjure commands in an existing system (old developer is no longer here), but I don't see any conjure or convert files anywhere in our system, so I get "no such file or directory exists" when trying to conjure. Creating a blank conjure file of course solves that issue, but then I don't get any output.

How can I go about acquiring the correct conjure and convert files?

This is a PHP infrastructure if that matters.

Thanks.

I am afraid this makes no sense to me. The convert and conjure programmes will be on the server somewhere; probably only seen by visiting the actual server and not the website. They must be there as you can get conjure to work.

I assume you are getting the error as the image files are missing?

What code are you using?

I searched the web server for conjure and it doesn't exist anywhere. It's a linux box (RedHat 64), if that matters.

I did not get conjure to work, that's the problem. I created a blank file named "conjure" just to ensure it was looking in the directory I told it to look in on the server, and it found the file...it just obviously can't actually perform the conjure function, as it's blank.

I have conjure.exe and convert.exe files in my WAMP folder locally (I use Bitnami), but like I said, this particular site is running on Linux, so that doesn't help me.

I have never used conjure and use convert for most things - are you sure you want to use it?
The conjure program gives you the ability to perform custom image processing tasks from a script written in the Magick Scripting Language (MSL). MSL is XML-based and consists of action statements with attributes. Actions include reading an image, processing an image, getting attributes from an image, writing an image, and more. An attribute is a key/value pair that modifies the behavior of an action. See Command Line Processing for advice on how to structure your conjure command or see below for example usages of the command.

It sounds as if ImageMagick isn't installed. For installation, see http://www.imagemagick.org/script/binary-releases.php or http://www.imagemagick.org/script/install-source.php
