I'm an Imagick & PerlMagick noob, so sorry if I'm missing something obvious.

When I run this code:

use strict;
use warnings;
use Image::Magick;

foreach my $filename ('z.png', 'z.gif', 'z.jpg')
{
    my $image = Image::Magick->new();
    my $num_images_read = $image->Read($filename);
    print "\$num_images_read for '$filename' = '$num_images_read'\n";
}

I get this output:

Code: Select all

$num_images_read for 'z.png' = 'Exception 420: NoDecodeDelegateForThisImageFormat `PNG' @ error/constitute.c/ReadImage/501'
$num_images_read for 'z.gif' = 'Exception 420: NoDecodeDelegateForThisImageFormat `GIF' @ error/constitute.c/ReadImage/501'
$num_images_read for 'z.jpg' = 'Exception 420: NoDecodeDelegateForThisImageFormat `JPEG' @ error/constitute.c/ReadImage/501'

The 3 files are valid PNG/GIF/JPG files.

Any ideas why Imagick can't read such basic file types?

Thanks.

I have set MAGICK_CODER_MODULE_PATH=C:\Perl\site\lib\auto\Image\Magick

I have NOT installed the command line version of Imagick (EDIT: I meant ImageMagick) a as I understand that is not necessary.

Thanks

Is Imagick relevant? Perhaps you mean ImageMagick (they are two different things).

The ImageMagick command line tools would help to diagnose your problem. For example, "convert -version" would tell you whether PNG is a built-in delegate, and "convert -debug all ..." would tell you where it was searching for its files.

Perhaps you can get this information without the CLI tools.

You're right, I meant ImageMagick.
