I'm using Gallery2 CVS and images resized with imagemagick have a horrible quality (I also had this problem with beta1, but I'm not sure if I was using netpbm or imagemagick). It looks like all my images have a quality of 0. I put galery into debugmode, and I think I found the offending command:Executing: ( "convert" "-quality" "" "-size" "150x150" "-geometry"
"150x150" "/home/apeacock/g2data/albums/36.jpg"
"/home/apeacock/g2data/tmp/imgk_C7nuQJ" )
2>/home/apeacock/g2data/tmp/g2dbg0SdyJ0

There is a quality flag, but it isn't being passed anything. I tested this on another file manually and it does in fact reduce a jpeg to a 0 quality one, which, needless to say, looks bad.

I can't find any settings for imagemagick, that was the first thing I looked for. The only place I see imagemagick mentioned is under toolkit priority, where I can just move them up and down, and under modules, where I can just activate/deactivate it (if I deactivate cetian modules they can't reactivate, but thats a question for another time...)

in Site Admin you should see

Quote:
Graphics Toolkits

* Ffmpeg
* ImageMagick
* NetPBM
* Toolkit Priority

on the left side if you have activated ffmpeg, imagemagick and netpbm modules. If there's no imagemagick link at the same time you get this "convert ..." message in debug mode, then something rather strange is going on.

Go to site admin -> modules and check if the imagemagick module is activated. maybe deactivate/remove and activate it again.
but in the imagemagick admin view, you should see a quality drop down list.

Nope, I don't have those under graphics toolkits. In the side menu I have

Quote:
Admin Options

* Gallery
o General
o Modules
o Users
o Groups
* Graphics Toolkits
o Toolkit Priority
* Display
o Layouts and Themes

Navigation

* Back to album

If I deactivate imagemagick, it probably won't reactivate (it wouldn't in beta 1).

I just have deactivated, uninstalled, installed and activated again the imagemagick G2 module.
Try it, if it doesn't work, activate debug and post the error. This will help us fix this error. And you have to do something anyway :)

The deactivation was successful, install errored.

Also, something seems pretty wrong - in my modules, I have a green thumb-up, and a number in version, but under "installed", I have no versions for anything except core.

right, there are several things wrong in your installation.
yes, there should be versions number in the installed column.

did you uninstall imagemagick after deactivating it? when you uninstall it, it deletes all entries in the database corresponding to imagemagick. then you should be able to install/activate it again. tell me, if you also see a number in the installed column when you accomplished this.

what can you tell us about the "history" of this G2 install? did you have another G2 installed before? was it an upgrade? if not, did you empty g2data / db and delete all files before you installed this G2?

Uninstall it? I pressed deactivate, and then I get an install button. No button for uninstall.

This is a clean install. I had beta1 installed, but I deleted the directory and the data dir and used a different DB for this install.

Everything seemed to go fine... the only thing I'm thinking of is that I have a funky home directory setup on dreamhost - both /home/apeacock and /home/.underfoot/apeacock work, and I'm not sure what I put in for my home dir during install. g2data is also stored in /home/apeacock/g2data, while the gallery is in /home/apeacock/thepeacock.net/gallery.

1) deactivate all toolkits (ffmpeg, im, netpbm, gd, also squarethumbs, thumbnail and uploadarchive which technically are toolkits)
2) delete the contents of g2_TkOperatnMap and g2_TkOperatnMimeTypeMap in your db

now you should be able to install/activate the toolkits again.
if you can figure out how to reproduce this problem (you deactivate a toolkit but it still shows up in Toolkit Priority) from a clean install please let us know.. one other person saw this too.

if you don't see a uninstall link after deactivating a module and if you are database savvy enough, delete all entries in g2_1_PluginParameterMap corresponding to this module.
i.e. delete from g2_1_PluginParameterMap
where g_pluginId = 'imagemagick';

Mindless: I did that and it didn't work. I didn't uninstall, since after I deactivate I do not have a button or anything anywhere to uninstall, just a button to instal.

Valiant: I did that, and I finally have that option, with a value of 75 in the quality, and my image uploads finally work. Thank you.

I seem to have this problem with all my modules though - they say they're installed, but they're not working, like the upload applet. Any idea what is wrong?

there must have been something seriously going wrong during the installation of your G2. do the same what you did for the imagemagickmodule for all other modules that are installed but have no version number in the installed column.
procedure:
foreach module that is active but has no version nr in installed column do
- deactivate
- sql command: delete from g2_1_PluginParameterMap
where g_pluginId = 'modulename';
whereas modulename = the name of the module you are uninstalling.

then install/activate the modules again.

Thank you, what I ended up doing was deactivating all of them and clearing the whole table, then putting the modules I want back on.

hopefully you didn't just delete ALL entries in the table, because some of them were for the core module, which cannot be installed manually in site admin.
