Hello I am new to gallery2 and I must say it's fantastic.
Installation was so easy and the Script seems to run faster than other galleries. Really great job you all did!
But there is one problem, I can't get ImageMagick to work with postscript and pdf.
I know, that my ImageMagick installation is working, I can tried from command-line and it worked very well, but gallery2 won't work with application/postscript.
application/postscript isn't listed in supported mime-types hen I click the test button.
Gallery is installed on an local intranet webserver for building up a huge picture database. So I can't provide you with any URLs.
I hope you understand my damn bad english... :-?
----

for me, it's listed and it works.
application/postscript
possible reason that it doesn't work for you:
1. path issues. don't test it in the commandline with your root user, test it with the apache / webserver user,
test:
identify somePostscriptFile.ps
and
convert somePostscriptFile.ps foo.jpg
edit: usually it's because Ghostscript is not in the path of the webserver user. imagemagick uses Ghostscript to do this ps stuff.

thx valiant for your hints, but that's not the problem.
1. pathes are set correct, other php scripts are working correct with ImageMagick and gs.
2. I changed the user and tried again from commandline and it worked perfect, I could identify and convert the eps file I uploaded before.
Maybe it's the IM Version (6.2.3) ???

please activate buffered debug mode and then go to site admin -> imagemagick and click test.
then either debug on your own or post the output here.

thx for your support!
I will try that now...

i forgot: you have to change a line in config.php to activate the buffered debug mode, it's explained in config.php.

thx found it...
that's the interesting part of the output from debug:
Executing: ( "/usr/local/bin/identify" "/opt/lampp/htdocs/gallery2/modules/imagemagick/classes/../test/data/test.eps" ) 2>/opt/lampp/htdocs/gallery2/g2data/tmp/g2dbglTuPpF file_exists(/opt/lampp/htdocs/gallery2/g2data/tmp/g2dbglTuPpF) filesize(/opt/lampp/htdocs/gallery2/g2data/tmp/g2dbglTuPpF) fopen(/opt/lampp/htdocs/gallery2/g2data/tmp/g2dbglTuPpF, r, 0) feof(Resource id #110) fgets(Resource id #110, 4096) feof(Resource id #110) fgets(Resource id #110, 4096) feof(Resource id #110) fgets(Resource id #110, 4096) feof(Resource id #110) fgets(Resource id #110, 4096) feof(Resource id #110) fclose(Resource id #110) unlink(/opt/lampp/htdocs/gallery2/g2data/tmp/g2dbglTuPpF) Regular Output: Error Output: sh: gs: command not found sh: gs: command not found identify: no decode delegate for this image format `/opt/lampp/htdocs/gallery2/modules/imagemagick/classes/../test/data/test.eps'.

seems to me IM isn't build within the gslib, is that right?

nope, when you say it works for you in the command line (identify somefile.eps / identify somefile.ps), then it means gs is not in path for your webserver user.

ok, that helps...
But I am a Linux n00b, so I got to ask, how can I change this?
Posts: 32509
google it. honestly, i google all the time for stuff i don't know.
i guess you want to add /usr/bin to the path in httpd.conf

ok, I googled alot, read alot, but didn't find anything, that's wrong with my configuration.
I installed gs and IM as root on the server using ssh.
IM itself seems to work correctly, I am out of ideas for now and will go on tomorrow.
Thanks for your fast help!

Hello again, I tried and tried but can't get IM to work with eps from script.
The pathes seem to be correct, has anybody another idea?
Posts: 32509
did you say it worked from other php scripts on the same webserver?

I did some tests this morning and found out, that it doesn't work from other scripts too. Now its not a gallery2 problem, seems to be a GS problem. I will try to reinstall gs and IM now.
If that doesn't work I'm going to buy a grenade and blow the webserver into the galaxy. :lol:

nope. it's not a im or gs problem.
you said it works from the command line with your root user.
it's obviously a paths problem.

I read Zürich is your location, do you speak german?
Would be much easier for me.
Where can I find the path settings of IM and GS?
Or do you mean PATH env settings of the system the server is running on?
When I log in as root and su to nobody (which is the user apache is running on) I can identify and convert from command line too.

i mean the PATH env and yes, i speak german. but your english is good and we try to keep everything in the official forum language.
as to your su nobody attempt: i had this PATH issues too once. i tried to install oracle and couldn't figure out why it complained / didn't work. i've even added the correct path to the PATH env variable in the httpd.conf etc.
it wasn't too important for me, so i gave up.

THX for your help i figured out how to get it to work now.
Here comes the trick:
there is a file named delegates.xml containing the commands IM uses to handle the different filetypes. I found some lines that call gs and changed this pathes.
For examole:
original:
<delegate decode="eps" encode="pdf" mode="bi" command='"gs" -q -dBATCH -dSAFER -dMaxBitmap=500000000 -dNOPAUSE -dAlignToPixels=0 -sDEVICE="pdfwrite" -sOutputFile="%o" -f"%i"' />
changed line:
<delegate decode="eps" encode="pdf" mode="bi" command='"/usr/local/bin/gs" -q -dBATCH -dSAFER -dMaxBitmap=500000000 -dNOPAUSE -dAlignToPixels=0 -sDEVICE="pdfwrite" -sOutputFile="%o" -f"%i"' />
notice the '/usr/local/bin/' in front of gs!
that did the trick.
Hope this is helpful for other people having trouble with that sh...
