Well I tried that, and it comes back false... The error messages give the right path for ImageMagick, but they still fail on the identify command. I've tested "identify" from the command line, and it works fine. I'm pretty lost as to what to do now, Paperclip seems to understand there's ImageMagick in Program Files, they just don't want to talk to each other. The images do get to a temp location in Local Settings\Temp, so some moving around is happening. Honestly, I'm just trying to get files uploaded in general, I'm only testing it on images because that's what all the guides are for and I wanted to have something working before I generalized. This is getting a lot more problematic than I expected. I guess the next thing to do is go to the Paperclip Google Group and see if they know anything. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
