Hi, This is the following of the problem I mentioned on May 20th.
I have a big problem with ImageMagick, it seems that sometimes it creates huge magick-XX... files. I suppose it's a crash on particular pictures. Well, that's annoying, but it's not my worst problem. The worst problem is that these files are created in the current path on a NFS mount, and this collapses my NFS server, and then all my other webservers ! This happens although I specified a dedicated local temporary path to save them (to crash only one server when ImageMagick crashes) : /usr/local/bin/convert -set registry:temporary-path /tmp /home/xxxx/yyyyy/sessions/73beaad5d67a4f5365fa9777e2600627/od3e02f1d93928948a018818d7d35f1e8_1.pdf -resize 470x470 -bordercolor #000000 -border 1 -matte ( +clone -background black -shadow 50x4+5+5 ) +swap -background #FFFFFF -flatten /home/xxxxxxx/yyyyyy/sessions/73beaad5d67a4f5365fa9777e2600627/pr_470_od3e02f1d93928948a018818d7d35f1e8_1_FFFFFF.jpeg /usr/local/bin/convert -set registry:temporary-path /tmp -limit memory 32mb -limit map 64mb /home/xxx/yyy/sessions/ac81808fb7a5048fcab491c93cfdbb1d/f7ff73ea6e7818d1ed8a67e5977090aa.jpeg -resize 300x300 -colorspace RGB /home/xxx/yyy/sessions/ac81808fb7a5048fcab491c93cfdbb1d/p_300_f7ff73ea6e7818d1ed8a67e5977090aa.jpeg After the answer I had on this list on May 20th, I added "TMPDIR=/tmp " in front of the command line, but I still have the problem. So I really think now there's a bug in Imagemagick 6.3.8 about temporary directory. I saw there's now a 6.4 version, but I already upgraded from 6.2.8 to 6.3.4 to see if this bug was fixed without success, and the customer needs extensive validation at each upgrade, so it will be difficult for me to ask to him once more to upgrade "only to see if the bug has been fixed". It's difficult as well to test it without using it in production since it's a random bug I never managed to reproduce. Does someone know if this bug is fixed in the new 6.4.x versions ?
