[Rails] Re: Carrierwave Is Not Loading RMagick

[andrewperk]

I thought I would update this for anyone who finds it in a search and
needs help getting this working.

I believe my problem stemmed from using Pik and having two versions of
Ruby installed. I'm not entirely sure about this but after removing it
everything worked after I reinstalled it all. Here was the process for
Windows Vista running Ruby192.

1. I first uninstalled everything. I uninstalled all versions of ruby/
gems, pik, and devkit. Restarted my PC.

2. I installed this version of Imagemagick into C:\ImageMagick-6.6.7-9-
Q16, I checked every option during the install except for telling it
to associate this program for file types or whatever:

http://image_magick.veidrodis.com/image_magick/binaries/ImageMagick-6.6.7-9-Q16-windows-dll.exe

3. Inside of c:\ImageMagick-6.6.7-Q16\config I deleted the type-
ghostscript.xml file and replaced it with a windows version which I
downloaded at:

http://www.imagemagick.org/source/type-windows.xml

And I put that inside of c:\ImageMagick-6.6.7-Q16\config.

4. Next I downloaded and installed Devkit:

https://github.com/oneclick/rubyinstaller/downloads/

5. Then I installed the rmagick gem from the cmd command line I ran:

gem install rmagick --platform=ruby -- --with-opt-lib=C:
\ImageMagick-6.6.7-Q16\lib --with-opt-include=C:\ImageMagick-6.6.7-
Q16\include

This installed the gem just fine. If it doesn't try closing and
reopening your command prompt.

6. I also called the rmagick gem from my gemfile:

gem 'carrierwave'
gem 'rmagick'

Some other problems I ran into was sqlite3 not working properly you
might need to download and extract both of these files into your
ruby191/bin folder:

http://www.sqlite.org/download.html

I also had a problem with rake afterwards which I needed to update in
the command line:

gem install rake

Then everything worked fine.

Yeah, I never work with rails on windows, but I often hear that got some
problems.

   sure that you have the Imagemagick installed on Windows Vista and XP?


The RMAgick need to have the Imagemagick Installed to process images.

Re: [Rails] Re: Carrierwave Is Not Loading RMagick

[Walter Davis]

The path may not be correct inside your Paperclip converter. You may  
have it in your path, but inside Paperclip, it needs to know a root- 
relative path to the binary. I am pretty sure I have seen a  
configuration property for this, so check through all the Paperclip  
setup stuff. I ended up having to put this in my environment files,  
because what worked on my laptop didn't work at all on Slicehost.

I've tried to use mini_magick as well. My application loads just fine
using that gem, but it will not process my image. It won't convert it

The weird thing is I have all of this working on an older windows XP

Is this maybe because I don't have rmagick in my gemfile? Is there a

specific gem because its for windows.



Thanks for any help.

I tried switching to paperclip. But when I try to upload using
paperclip its telling me the image isn't recognized by the identify
command. But yet I can use identify in the command line. I'm
completely stumped.

Eveything works except for being able to install the gem with that

Re: [Rails] Re: Carrierwave Is Not Loading RMagick

Try use mini_magick

gem 'mini_magick'

and replace
*
*
*include CarrierWave::RMagick*

by

*include CarrierWave::MiniMagick*

on uploader file

[Rails] Re: Carrierwave Is Not Loading RMagick

[Agoofin]

Rails on Windows is a painful process isn't it?

I had some dealings with rmagick which were mitigated by using
Paperclip.

I did find this though -
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5811388/imagemagick-core-rl-magick-dll-not-found-or-how-to-install-rmagick-on-window

Hope this helps

If you have the computer horsepower (Virtualbox) or the ability to
dual boot - get a Linux distro to develop with.
