Crop output basic not working! please help! - El Forum - 01-15-2008

I have been trying to solve this problem for ages now, if anyone could help it would be much apreciated. I am trying to crop an image but it just outputs nothing without an error. When i use resize instead of crop it works. But crop does nothing. Please help.
Code:
function output()
{
$folder = "assets/images/content/".$this->uri->segment(3)."/".$this->uri->segment(4)."/";
$this->load->library('image_lib');
// RESIZE
$config['image_library'] = 'GD2';
$config['source_image'] = $folder."main.jpg";
$config['maintain_ratio'] = FALSE;
$config['dynamic_output'] = TRUE;
$config['x_axis'] = '100';
$config['y_axis'] = '60';
$this->image_lib->initialize($config);
if (!$this->image_lib->crop())
{
echo $this->image_lib->display_errors();
}
}Crop output basic not working! please help! - El Forum - 01-15-2008

I have always found it is safest to use absolute links when working with the image library
so set you $folder to the absolute link rather than relative
Also try setting the dimensions as numbers not strings
i.e.
Code:
function output()
{
$folder = "/full/path/to/assets/images/content/".$this->uri->segment(3)."/".$this->uri->segment(4)."/";
$this->load->library('image_lib');
// RESIZE
$config['image_library'] = 'GD2';
$config['source_image'] = $folder."main.jpg";
$config['maintain_ratio'] = FALSE;
$config['dynamic_output'] = TRUE;
$config['x_axis'] = 100;
$config['y_axis'] = 60;
$this->image_lib->initialize($config);
if (!$this->image_lib->crop())
{
echo $this->image_lib->display_errors();
}
}
