Mark, if you don't know how to compile from source, just use the binary release; simply upload the files to a directory on your server and link to the paths in the control panel.

I think your right about the *.rmp
Looks like it should be this version would you agree?
ImageMagick-i386-unknown-freebsd6.1.tar.gz
As im not sure at all.
Directory?
I was under the asumption that it was to hide
in the vars/etc/what ever ??
I would like this available to all domains / accounts
on my server, so does that mean the binary option??
Sorry there seems to be more questions than progress.
I'm familar with DOS its just the server enviorment
that un nerves me as i'm not used to it at all.
And the new command lines. ( I dont want to break it).
Thanks in advance Mark.

wherever you put the files are where they'd be, wiht a precompiled binary you can put them anywhere; /usr/bin mainly would make them availabel to everyone on the machine.

if you use yum to install imagemagick, you have to restart apache:
service httpd restart
should do it.

Do you have safe mode turned on Mark, with any open_basedir restrictions? If PHP is locked down with some safe mode restrictions then that could be why it's resulting in a white screen. I'll need to add more debugging to the output, but it could be that you don't have access to the "exec" command as well.

I should put a check in to make sure that the exec function is accessible as well. What you can do is make a quick and dirty php file, and then bring it up in your browser.
<?php
if (function_exists('exec')) {
echo "Yes, exec() is availalbe.";
} else {
echo "No, exec() is not available.";
} ?>

Yeh, that version of ImageMagick should work fine for what you're doing here.
Are convert and morgify in your /usr/bin properly?
If there is some sort of security issue blocking access to them you could try copying them to the web-root of each site wanting to use them and re-link to them in the control panel, just as a test to see if that is the case...

Hmm, Mark. In a previous post, you had this:
"/usr/local/bin/convert logo: logo.gif"
You'll want to double check where convert and mogrify are installed just to check if it's /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin you should be using.

I think its just a typo on my part,
but i havnt got that to work the image thing
"/usr/local/bin/convert logo: logo.gif"
As i'm sure the path is diffrent,
that text was a copy and paste from the web site
under, Unix Binary Release
I was getting desprate,
commands to out put the path?
i'm checking....

updatedb (updates your slocate database)
locate convert (locates the command "convert")

Or instead of "locate convert" try "which convert". Locate might return a big long list of stuff you aren't looking for If you can't get either of those to work, try these 2 commands: ls /usr/bin/convert ls /usr/local/bin/convert One of those should return a "No such file or directory", and one should return the actual file.

/usr/bin/convert
Returns the comands for the file.
which convert = /usr/bin/convert
but i cant get that logo thing to work,
is there spaces ? space = *
"/usr/bin/convert*logo:*logo.gif"
I get no such file or directory,
but that's on the binary page that line,
which could be leading us astry ?
As i used the Yum ?

Ok, so we know it's /usr/bin/convert. So, just do this to make sure it's executable and functioning properly:
/usr/bin/convert -version

But wouldn't a SSH running of the program at the command line determine if it works or not? Or is this still relying on PHP and a Web page ?

Ok, so as long as you have /usr/bin in the path to convert and mogrify then you should be good. What is your open_basedir restriction set to? It very well could be that's what restricting it, as that will not allow PHP to access any files outside of that directory.

Ok, it's almost to the point that we may need a support ticket. One last thing to check, just to make sure you're calling your test mode correctly. Make sure you're logged in as an admin and bring this up in your browser, on your domain of course:

Ok, then it's working as intended. Now, make sure that registration is set to use ImageMagick. There is a bit of a problem in b4 where the image might first come up as a red x, like it's not found, but it should change to the actual CAPTCHA image after a second.

There are 2 different areas you can use CAPTCHA. One is the registration area for new users, the other one is for guest posting.

Rick, he has IM's paths set to what *should* work; the setup for the forum does indicate he's trying to use imagemagick; the page shows for the post page on a topic however no image ever loads.
Checked both IE and FFox2 to see if it could have been a browser issue.

I didnt mention that the CAPTCHA folder wasnt listed but i guesed as its a new feature it has to go up there. Thanks again
