Hi guys,

I'm trying to install ImageMagic plugin for my gallery2. Now I can use command "convert --version" to get the IM version

Version: ImageMagick 6.2.8 04/17/08 Q16 file:/usr/share/ImageMagick-6.2.8/doc/index.html
Copyright: Copyright (C) 1999-2006 ImageMagick Studio LLC

But in plugin config page, I type the path "/usr/bin" and press the test button, it show "The path you entered is not a valid directory or is not accessible. "

May I have the help please?

convert: /usr/bin/convert /usr/share/man/man1/convert.1.gz

It looks corrected. But gallery still say a invalid path

Just looked at my G2 install. Try /usr/bin/ (ending slash)

If that doesn't work, check your open_basedir setting and if you don't have anything enabled there, then I can only think that it's some security setting on the server preventing the user that PHP (or Apache) run as from accessing that path or those binaries.

Try creating a php page with this:

<?php echo shell_exec("/usr/bin/convert"); ?>:

Does that output anything?

Make sure "/usr/bin" is excluded from open_basedir restrictions.
