php error: Class 'Imagick' not found

php

I am getting the error "Class 'Imagick' not found". Somehow I need to make this library accessible to php. I am using Php 5.2.6 on Fedora 8. my php_info has no mention of ImageMagick.

I have tried: yum install ImageMagick and restarted apache, which didn't work.

I also added extension=imagick.ext to my php.ini file and restarted apache, which didn't work.

Solution 1:

For all to those having problems with this i did this tutorial:

How to install Imagemagick and Php module Imagick on ubuntu?

i did this 7 simple steps:

Update libraries, and packages

apt-get update

Remove obsolete things

apt-get autoremove

For the libraries of ImageMagick

apt-get install libmagickwand-dev

for the core class Imagick

apt-get install imagemagick

For create the binaries, and conections in beetween

pecl install imagick

Append the extension to your php.ini

echo "extension=imagick.so" >> /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini

Restart Apache

service apache2 restart

I found a problem. PHP searches for .so files in a folder called /usr/lib/php5/20100525, and the imagick.so is stored in a folder called /usr/lib/php5/20090626. So you have to copy the file to that folder.

Solution 2:

For RHEL-based i386 distributions:

yum install ImageMagick.i386
yum install ImageMagick-devel.i386
pecl install imagick
echo "extension=imagick.so" > /etc/php.d/imagick.ini
service httpd restart

This may also work on other i386 distributions using yum package manager. For x86_64, just replace .i386 with .x86_64

Solution 3:

Ubuntu

sudo apt-get install php5-dev pecl imagemagick libmagickwand-dev
sudo pecl install imagick
sudo apt-get install php5-imagick
sudo service apache2 restart

Some dependencies will probably already be met but excluding the Apache service, that's everything required for PHP to use the Imagick class.

Solution 4:

For MAMP running on Mac OSX

Find out the what version of PHP and install the right version via brew

brew install homebrew/php/php56-imagick

Add the extension by modifying the php.ini template in MAMP

Verify the Imagick

Solution 5:

Debian 9

I just did the following and everything else needed got automatically installed as well.

sudo apt-get -y -f install php-imagick
sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
