[SOLVED] CI 3.1.0 ImageMagick not working

Seriously, for the Nth time - stop using the develop branch. It is NOT stable, of course you'll have problems with it.

Ok then lets download and try the official 3.1.0 link from the home page and use that system. And it does not work. It gives the error message that the path to the image library is not correct.

When that happens, you should look if it's not already a reported bug, and if not - report it yourself, like this guy did: https://github.com/bcit-ci/CodeIgniter/issues/4736

Then lets download the 3.1 'stable' branch from Github and use that system. And that version does not even do the upload and it does not return any errors - it just gives a white screen. That situation is why earlier this month I started using 3.2.0 dev because it does not have the upload issue.

No significant changes to CI_Upload have been made since the 3.0.0 release, so that "upload issue" you're talking about is not only news (which apparently you've been keeping to yourself), but also most likely something on your end.

There are ZERO differences in file uploading, image processing between 3.1-stable and develop:

Code:

$ git diff 3.1-stable develop system/libraries/Upload.php
$ git diff 3.1-stable develop system/libraries/Image_lib.php
$

If there were any at the time you tried it, you know what they would've been? develop being multiple commits behind 3.1.0
You would've been better with just keeping 3.0.6 instead.

So again the only fix i found that did work for getting ImageMagick to work was what was posted above by John Betong.

Do you know what that does? Reverts to the 3.0.6 behavior.
