[RESOLVED] Calling ImageMagick Command

[rsmith]

All,
I just installed ImageMagick on a client's server (running Windows). When I go to call mogrify to perform a resize, the script does nothing. Here's the relevant portion of the script:

<?
     exec("c:\\ImageMagick\\mogrify.exe -resize 320x240 ".$path."");
     header("Location: ".$_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']."");
?>

 The image (stored in the $path variable) is never even touched but the user is taken back to their original location.

I got it. I had to install the magickwand.dll and add the appropriate extension= call in the php.ini file. Restarted the web server and everything is working great.

Well, you wouldn't need the extension if you were going to use shell access, and vice versa: so one of those steps was redundant.

If you've installed the extension you might as well use it.

I took out the extension later when I revised my script. Thanks though.
