Changing Img Size with ImageMagick

[Cynthia_Blue]

I am trying to loop through all the images in a subdirectory and change thier size with ImageMagick. It's not quite working.

I look through the files, output the file names, but no image changing is taking place. If someone would help me with my code, I'd greatly appreacite it. 🙂

// open directory 
$dir = opendir("/var/www/html/home/images/imagick"); 
$thumb = "thumb";
$mid = "mid";


// loop through the directory while reading it's contents 
while ($file = readdir($dir)) { 
     // if the current file in the loop is a JPEG then do stuff
     if (ereg("jp[e|eg|g]$", $file)) { 
	  $newfile = $thumb.$file;
      $create_thumb = "convert -size 120x120 $file -resize 120x120 $newfile"; 
      system($create_thumb);
      echo "<br>file: $file, <br>thumb: $thumb, <br>newfile: $newfile<br>";
     } 
}

I've taken snippets from other posts, if this looks familiar.
Thanks.

It looks like if I just run the code straight through PHP page, it does not work. But running command line does.

    $create_thumb = "convert -size 150x113 cam_orig01.jpg -resize 150x113 thumbcam_orig01.jpg"; 
    system($create_thumb);

Does not work. What can I do to get it to work?
Thanks.

you may need to supply the path to convert
