PHP - Anyone use MagickWand before?

[jOE :D]

I'm trying to use MagickWand to manipulate an images brightness, but it doesn't seem to be working. Here is the code I have:

PHP Code:

$original = $config['sitePath'] . $imageConfig['thumbDirectory'] . $_GET['id'] . '/1.jpg';
    
$magick_wand = NewMagickWand();
MagickReadImage($magick_wand,$original);
MagickModulateImage($magick_wand,2,0,0);
MagickWriteImage($magick_wand,$original); 


Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? It's not giving me any errors.

[jOE :D]

bump for help!

Do you have installed " ImageMagick version 6.3.5, or greater "

Then:

Download MagickWand from the following link

magickwand.org/download/php/

For installation follow the steps given below.


** REQUIRED ** ImageMagick version :: 6.3.5-9
Last-known-good ImageMagick version :: 6.3.5-9


1) Either install the required ImageMagick version or make sure that it
is installed (running "Wand-config --version" should give you the
required information).

2) Type

phpize
./configure
make
make install

3) Add

extension=magickwand.so

to your "php.ini" initialization file.

#php, efnet?

directfiesta, I just contacted my server tech support and it seems to be installed fine. They told me the version difference really shouldn't matter.

Is there anything I'm doing wrong with that? It's not giving me any errors, but it doesn't seem to be writing the new images.

What I'm trying to do is open the image, increase the brightness, and save the image.

maybe add a phpinfo.php to your virtual site to see if it is actually compiled with the apache ...

PHP Code:

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

or you could add a php.ini to your root folder to add/overide the one of the sever :

extension=magickwand.so

Hard to say without the server config ...

I did a phpinfo() and MagickWand did compile with apache and the extension is in the php.ini.

Do you think have ImageMagick 6.3.6 instead of 6.3.5-9 would matter?

No.. that version is fine ... So in the phpinfo file , you see :

unzip this file and upload to your server in a folder :

http://www.pdgcash.com/gfy/bitweaver_check.zip

upload it to the default folder : bitweaver_check

Then open a browser to that url and you will see ig Imagemagic and magicwand are operational ...
