ImageMagick Resizing Issue

 $make_magick =   system("convert -sample $ss1thumbwidth x $ss1thumbheight $ss1original $ss1newthumb", $retval);

Ok, for some reason, my system command is not working, can anyone see a issue concerning this problem. *** is edited out site specifics. Thanks in advanced.

Um i belive you forgot to edit out one site specific item.

[Pimpen 2010]

Can you edit it out for me? It's code for my site

[fishfreek]

Im not a code guy in this respect but do you have 777 permissions on the thumbnails and images folder? I dont see where you define the path to the convert utility.

[ATLien]

yes I do have 777 permissions, the problem is not the pah either, I have looked at that already.

Try changing the following line.

$make_magick = system("convert -sample $ss1thumbwidth x $ss1thumbheight $ss1original $ss1newthumb", $retval);

TO

$make_magick = system("/path/to/the/ImageMagick/bin/convert -sample $ss1thumbwidth x $ss1thumbheight $ss1original $ss1newthumb", $retval);

Make sure you replace /path/to/the/ImageMagick/bin/convert with the actual path on your server.

I have already tryed that. I am thinking it could be a issue with (spaces) in the names. Does anyone think that could be a issue?

[imaginemn]

If you are referring to the images having spaces, yes that is a problem.

Things you want to avoid are:

Don't add extraneous punctuation to the file name.

Good: my_file.jpg
Bad: my/file.jpg

Don't put more than one period in the file name.

Good: very_big_file.jpg
Bad: very.big.file.jpg

Don't omit the 3-letter suffix.

Good: myfile.gif
Bad: my.file
Bad: myfile

Avoid spaces in filenames.

Good: my_big_file.jpg
Bad: my big file.jpg

Ok, I solved. Thanksimagine, but I finshed it before you posted. I had to do a string replace, then a rename.
