Re: ImageMagick on OSX
This WebDNA talk-list message is from 2003
It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 52804
interpreted = N
texte = Yikes! I made about 100 typos in that small email hehe. The easiest way is to log onto the termail and "cd /usr/local/bin/" and do a "ls -l" and see who owns the file. But like I was trying to say (and I did not realise webstar, my pathes are for apache) run the convert from the commandline and see if you get an error. If not then change to the user that WebStar is running as and try it and see if you get an error. This is what was happening to us and we had to setup sudo. ----- Original Message ----- From: "World Wide Art"
