Ok... after getting FlexImage to do what I needed on my local host (Vista x64, using RMagick for win32) I decided to test on my current hosting provider, DreamHost.
The problem with DreamHost is that their "default" packages are all outdated. Ruby 1.8.5, ImageMagick 6.2, RMagick 1.15!!!! The good thing is that I can install any newer version of the packages under my user... I've got the newest ImageMagick and RMagick installed, as well as Ruby 1.8.6. The problem is... I'm not sure passenger is loading the correct RMagick (or if RMagick is using the correct ImageMagick), because it is crashing when trying to work with it... I've added config.gem "RMagick", :version => ">= 2.5" to my environment.rb, but whenever I run rake gems I get: [ ] RMagick >= 2.5 I = Installed F = Frozen And for completeness, here is the error I get on production.log: ActionView::TemplateError (/home/.../vendor/plugins/fleximage/lib/ fleximage/operator/text.rb:83:in `operate': undefined method `shadow' for 1024x768 DirectClass 16-bit:Magick::Image) in images/ show.jpg.flexi: Any ideas on what I can do to try and troubleshoot this? Any help is greatly appreciated... --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ SD Ruby mailing list [email protected] http://groups.google.com/group/sdruby -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
