ImageMagick issue

[bigone5500]

I have installed image magick to my web server and have configured it and want to know how to get it to work now. I use 1and1.com as my web host and I have to install image magick using SSH. After installation of image magick, I now have a directory in the include directory called ImageMagick. This is where the configuration installed it to. Here's the way it looks from the root of my web space:

/slideshow/include/ImageMagick/

There are also sub directories of /ImageMagick called /magick, /Magick++, and /wand.

I would like to know what to put in the section called: Path to ImageMagick 'convert' utility. Should it be; /include/ImageMagick, or /include/ImageMagick/wand?

BTW, this is a great BBS.

Usually, you can't install ImageMagick on your own. Usually, it needs to be installed by your webserver admin. Usually, it needs to be installed outside of the webroot and not into the include folder within your webroot. Anyway, we can't advise: you need to ask your webhost for details, as this is a matter of webserver setup and not related to coppermine (you can't ask a car manufacturer how to build a road). They could tell you as well the absolute path on your server (because that's what you need to specify in Coppermine's config). I suggest using GD2 instead of ImageMagick.
I'm gald to hear that you like Coppermine. Coppermine is not a BBS (bulletin board software, aka forum) though, but a gallery application.

I have talked to them about this and they showed me where to find the absolute path to my root directory. I was able to install ImageMagick as per their instructions. As far as finding out the path to the Image magick executables, I don't think they will help. I also tried GD2 and had errors when using it. I'll toy with IM a bit more and if I can't get it to work, I'll delve into getting GD2 to work.

Thanks...
