Image Magic with Install

[jimbo_2008]

I am installing on a windows 2003 server with IIS

I keep getting this error.

The installer found the ImageMagick 'convert' program in 'c:\im/', however it can't be executed by the script.

I have changed permissions on the c:\im folder to use iis's webuser account and I also read some where to change permissions on cmd.exe

Still having no luck, maybe someone here has had this problem before.

Thanks for your help.

We can't teach you how to set up ImageMagick because that's part of webserver setup, which is beyond the scope of this board. From the docs:

Path to ImageMagick 'convert' utility (example /usr/bin/X11/)

If you intend using ImageMagick convert utility to resize you picture, you must enter the name of the directory where the convert program is located in this line. Don't forget the trailing "/" to close the path. This path must only indicate the directory where the convert utility is located, it should not point directly to the convert utility.

If your server is running under Windows, use / and not \ to separate components of the path (eg. use C:/ImageMagick/ and not C:\ImageMagick\). This path must not contain any spaces under Windows so that it will not put ImageMagick in the "Program files" directory.

ImageMagick will not work properly if PHP on your server is running in SAFE mode and it is a real challenge to get it running under Windows. Please consider using GD in these cases and don't waste your time asking for support in the forum with ImageMagick installation questions. There are just too many things that can prevent ImageMagick from work properly and without physical access to your server it is extremely difficult to guess what is wrong.

Please pay particular attention to the section highlighted in bold.
