Imagemagick help

[petenaylor]

Hi all

 

I am trying to resize an image using imagemagick but it won't let me use the below code as it shows a security error 'exec() has been disabled for security reasons':

 

$scale = '158x158';
$go = WEB_UPLOAD.'/test/images/'.$image;
$stop = WEB_UPLOAD.'/test/images/'.$image_medium;
exec("/usr/bin/convert $go -resize $scale\> -quality 100 $stop") or die("Error creating 158 x 158 image.");
unset($scale, $go, $stop);

 

How do I write the code that resizes the image without using the exec function?

 

Many thanks for you help!

 

Pete

If exec() is disabled then the other related functions probably are too.

 

Can you install the IMagick extension?

Hi there

 

Yes Imagick is installed. I have tried a quick test to create a thumbnail and it worked.

 

Thanks
