6.8.4-10 Q8 bianry fails PerlMagick on windows 2003 Server

[abjones]

I have installed ActiveState Perl 5.16.3
I have installed ImageMagick-6.8.4-10-Q8-x86-dll.exe
Rebooted.
ImageMagick runs OK from command line, but
PerlMagick

Code: Select all

#perl
use Image::Magick;

returns

&Image::Magick::constant not defined. The required ImageMagick libraries are not installed or not installed properly.
END failed--call queue aborted.

I get the same error with ImageMagick-6.8.4-10-Q16-x86-dll.exe

Same error with ImageMagick-6.8.4-5-Q8-x86-dll.exe
but with ImageMagick-6.8.4-4-Q8-x86-dll.exe this PerlMagick error does not occurr.

I'm also getting this error.

I do not have any previous versions of ImageMagick installed. I am compiling perl and ImageMagick using visual studio 2010:

Code: Select all

1) download perl source code and extract it
2) cd to perl-5.14.4\win32
3) edit makefile so that it references the correct version of visual studio and change the install path (the install path is in my %PATH%)
4) build perl using nmake, nmake test, nmake install (this works fine)
5) build ImageMagick and PerlMagick using the following:
    a) uncompress the zip file downloaded from imagemagick.org
    b) cd to VisualMagick\configure
    c) run devenv configure.sln /Upgrade
    d) run MSBuild configure.sln /property:Configuration=Release
    e) run configure.exe edit the magick-baseconfig.h change MAGICKCORE_QUANTUM_DEPTH to 8 instead of 16, accept all defaults click Next etc. until finished.
    f) cd ..
    g) run devenv VisualDynamicMT.sln /Upgrade (to convert the solution to vs2010 format)
    h) run MSBuild -ArgumentList VisualDynamicMT.sln /property:Configuration=Release (this works fine, some warnings, no errors)
    i) cd ..\contrib\win32\ATL7\ImageMagickObject
    j) run BuildImageMagickObject clean
    k) run BuildImageMagickObject release
    l) I then copy all dlls and exe files to a folder in my %PATH%
    m) cd back to base ImageMagick directory
    n) cd to PerlMagick
    o) run perl Makefile.nt
    p) run nmake
    q) run nmake test (this fails all tests with the same error: &Image::Magick::constant not defined. The required ImageMagick libraries are not installed or not installed properly.)

I am not sure what to do here, if I revert back to version 6.8.3 all this works fine. Something happened between then and now to cause this process to fail.


Thanks for any assistance.

Just to update, I tested 6.8.4-2 and it did not have this issue either.

I had the exact same problem on Windows 7, ISS 7.5 & active perl.
Now I got image magic to load but it still fail when i try to use it Exception
420: NoDecodeDelegateForThisImageFormat `edecp/tropheequebec.com/img//300px-PNG_transparency_demonstration_2.png' @ error/constitute.c/ReadImage/550

All the delegate are available and I see all the formats in the command line with the "configure -list whatever" option.

I have not tried any other recent updates, but
My Problem is Resolved with
ImageMagick-6.8.6-2-Q8-x86-dll.exe

Thanks and good health!
