I need to install imagemagick but first I will like to know if someone can explain to me how can I accomplish this without messing my plesk installation, I being doing some research on this forum and in other sites but I was not able to find specific information related to the installation of imagemagick when it comes to plesk reloaded + red hat linux enterprise.

And of course I will like to know for sure how to make this installation and others available to my virtual hosts. Thanks.

P.D. I’m a total newbie so please don’t assume anything.

The first thing you want to do is login with ssh and do

$ locate ImageMagick

My Plesk 7 Reloaded already has ImageMagick installed at /usr/

or, you can run a Perl script to check for the Perl interface to ImageMagick (if it is there it will return true if ImageMagick is correctly installed)


#!/usr/bin/perl --

$image_magick_check=0;
eval "use Image::Magick";
if(!$@){$image_magick_check=1}

print "Content-type: text/htmlnn";
print "$image_magick_check";

usually imagemagic is a thing that comes with the os, try up2date -u ImageMagick

if your server has yet not ben subscribed to rhn, open a ticket asking for it, and in no time you will have your server added to up2date
