Re: [Dspace-tech] ImageMagick errors
Hi Shannon, Hmmm.. it does sound like an error related to trying to use the wrong convert command (as you noted Windows has it's own convert.exe command). This StackOverflow answer says something similar: http://stackoverflow.com/a/26163068 After some searching around, it seems like there's a few options..admittedly, I haven't tried *any* of these though: 1. These 'im4java' docs seem to imply the correct path syntax for Windows is C:\\Program Files\\ImageMagick (and you can specify multiple folders separated by semicolons): http://im4java.sourceforge.net/docs/dev-guide.html 2. The StackOverflow answer above says that installing the *portable* version of ImageMagick and Ghostscript may resolve this issue. 3. Another option may be to tweak your PATH so that the ImageMagick folder appears *before* your System32 folder. That solution is mentioned in this blog post on ImageMagick + Windows: http://savage.net.au/ImageMagick/html/install-convert.html Again, I haven't tried any of these. But, if you find something that does work, please do let us know. We can then update the official Documentation with a recommended setup for Windows. - Tim On 4/14/2015 4:39 PM, Shannon Meisenheimer wrote: Hi, We are running DSpace 5.1 (Mirage2) on Windows Server 2012.

Re: [Dspace-tech] ImageMagick errors
Thanks Tim, I had read some of those, but hadn't seen the third. I'll try the regedit,or just rename windows convert. I already have ImageMagick at the beginning of the PATH. It's seems like I can run/access ImageMagick convert from cmd when I call/run it directly, but DSpace is trying to use Windows convert. Is the double extension .pdf.jpg normal? Do Ghostscript and ImageMagick need to be in the same folder? I know it states to install them both to /usr/bin (linux path) in the documentation, but is that needed on a win box? We had the thumbnail generation working on an earlier install of 5.0 with the applications in their respective default install locations.

Re: [Dspace-tech] ImageMagick errors
It was an issue with DSpace not being able to find ImageMagick
convert.exe, even though the path and environment variables are properly
defined. You do have to set the path in dspace.cfg, but that in itself is
tricky as none the following worked:
--
- C:\\Program Files\\ImageMagick
- C:\Program Files\ImageMagick
- C:\Program Files\ImageMagick
- C:/Program Files/ImageMagick
--
Monkeying with the registry or modifying sys32 applications was a last
resort for me, so what I tried that worked was:
1. Install ImageMagick and Ghostscript to c:\dspace\imagemagick. I
chose a lower case for the subfolder not knowing if config definitions for
file paths in dspace.cfg would be case sensitive. I went with the
assumption that they are.
2. Define
'org.dspace.app.mediafilter.ImageMagickThumbnailFilter.ProcessStarter' in
dspace.cfg as '${dspace.dir}/imagemagick'.
Turns out the relative path did the trick. ... Or it could be that Program
Files has a space in it, I would think quote encapsulation would deal with
that. Either way it's working now :)
Thanks all,
Shannon
