First, I tried to install ImageMagick using Port. When I installed Port, I ran through the installation wizard and it said it was completed. Afterward, I went to Terminal and typed 'sudo port' but it said 'port' was an unrecognized command. I rebooted, and it still did not work. So - I moved on to manual install. Using the instructions provided, I ungzipped and untarred ImageMagick into a subdirectory of Applications. I ran the test commands, which worked, but when launching the latest version of Gallery Remote, it still says ImageMagick is not installed. How do I go about troubleshooting this? |

Can you attach the output of 'which convert', and attach the GR log? -- |

Just have the same Problem on my Mac. I happens even with b36 and also with b37. I tested Image Magick and got the converted Output. I didn't get any output from which convert, it just shows the terminal ready for the next input. But i will attach the log file of GR. Regards |

I, too, am experiencing this issue. ImageMagick 6.4.1 tests worked fine when I had a shell open and exported the MAGICK_HOME variable, etc. Gallery Remote connects to my Gallery and I can add an image - as soon as a drop the image in Gallery Remote, I get the error that ImageMagick is not installed or working correctly. The only thing I noticed from the log was by comparing an old install on another machine that works. The path to convert is not being printed in the error, and when convert works on my old machine, the path is printed. On the install that is *not* working, I set the imConvertPath to /Library/ImageMagick-6.4.1/bin/convert in im.properties, where I installed ImageMagick. Current Error: 14430|TRACE|MainFrame |updatePicturesList: current album: April 2008 (1) 14432|CRITI|ImageUtils|ImageMagick doesn't seem to be working. Disabling However, when it works on the old install, the message reads: Any ideas? |

PS - This happens early on in the log when Gallery Remote starts up: 422|CRITI|ImageUtils|ImageMagick path is not fully qualified, presence won't be tested until later On the ImageMagick install, there are several variables that must be exported to run in the shell: I am not setting these permanently anywhere. Is this a problem? When I have set them and run 'which convert', I get the following: twongs-imac:ImageMagick-6.4.1 twong$ which convert |

Well, I got a bit further - I sleuthed out that I had the pathing property for convert in im.properties set to the wrong variable name: the app is expecting 'im.convertPath'. After correcting that, the full path was listed when convert was run. However, now I am getting: 15040|TRACE|ImageUtils|Executing [/Library/ImageMagick-6.4.1/bin/convert, -filter, Box, /Users/twong/Desktop/0603081717.jpg, -resize, 64x64, +profile, *, /tmp/thumbs-twong/thumb811696547.gif] Again, I ask, in the Mac OS X 10.5.3 environment, do I need to set some permanent environment or pathing variables? |

OK, so now convert is getting called correctly, but is not loading the shared library. According to this page on the ImageMagick site, you do have to set your environment so ImageMagick can find its libraries. Did you do that? -- |

This is what I am getting when I run the "which convert"... |

[i]I've updated this page to mention that you can just edit the main properties file, you no longer need to mess with the properties file inside your application. -- |
