m1a1lt, you must enter the path to either NetPBM or ImageMagick in the config.

please specify in the gallery configuration whether or not your using imagemagick or netpbm and specify the paths to each accordingly, if using netpbm you need to see which binary you have, either pnmtojpeg or ppmtojpeg
hope that helps

I thought so but I don't know what to do now. I contacted my web administrater and he he gave me the path to the imagemagick files but I have tried them and during configu it keeps telling me it can't find the imagemagick files. Any thoughts on this?

I have also tried avoiding image magick by using netpbm....I uploaded the netpbm binaries and put in the path and it still can't find netpbm. Any ideas why?

log into your server using the shell and run this command
rpm -qa | grep ImageMagick*
it will tell you if you have ImageMagick installed on the server or not, if so you can try using this command to find where convert id located if its in your path
whereis convert
if it dont tell you chances are its not in your path and wouldnt be in apaches path either
the most likely spot for it on Redhat servers will be
/usr/X11R6/bin
hope this helps

I currently do not have shell access but in the process of emailing my webadmin to see if he will grant it to me or if he can do the changes over shell access for me.

I have the gallery running good enough for the debug to run and it is giving me errors that not all the binaries are installed for both imagemagick and netpdm so I emailed my webadmin and the first email he said: Jeff,
As before it is indeed installed. When I ran the command it came back with:
ImageMagick-5.4.3.11-1
When I ran whereis covert, I got the following results:
after that I tried using those paths and it said there were binaries not installed and it listed them.
So I emailed him again and he said: Jeff,
I have several users on the same server running Image Magick without issue. I believe they are using a program called "gallery" to access it however.
I really could use some help on this one.

Try using /usr/X11R6/bin as the path. Does this work?

I too am having problems with imagemagick. I was told I have the necessary binaries in place, but cannot for the life of me get the correct path. I have tried the /usr/X11R6/bin to no avail. I have php 4.1.2. and am running redhat linux.
Any pointers would be well recieved! :D

If you have shell access, do the commands that were mentioned above. Post the results...

I don't have shell access unfortunately, which kinda puts a crimp on things I'm going to email my web hosts to see if they can do it on my behalf...

The saga continues... My web host doesn't have the rpm installed, so can't execute the shell command. They assure me that ImageMagick is installed, as the script does, We tried numerous paths including
usr/lib/ImageMagick
usr/share/ImageMagick
usr/include/Magick
and several other variations along those lines.
All produced he same error message saying the programme can't find Image Magick here.
Still I suppose it keeps the mind active... :o

Just try using NetPBM, which you can download directly from the Gallery Download Page

Note, all those paths are impossible. They should all begin with "/" eg
/usr/lib/ImageMagick

Thanks Andrew,
My web host pulled the finger out and found the correct path for IM, which on my server is
