TYPO3 can't read or create pdf thumbnails with imagemagick or graphicsmagick

Question

I'm using TYPO3 CMS 7.6 with PHP 5.5.2 on a Windows Server 2012 (IIS), my Server administrator installed ghostscript, graphicsmagick 1.3.25 and imagemagick. Now I use graphicsmagick:

C:/GraphicsMagick/gm.exe

It works, test all graphic manipulation on install tool: Convert image formats to jpg or scaling or combining images ... only PDF Thumbnails or convert PDF to JPG isn't working.

Screenshot:

Error: Read pdf

Image generation failed
ImageMagick / GraphicsMagick handling is enabled, but the execute command returned an error. Please check your settings, especially ['GFX']['im_path'] and ['GFX']['im_path_lzw'] and ensure Ghostscript is installed on your server.

The path to gm or im is correct, because the other formats are working fine.

[GFX][im_path] = C:/GraphicsMagick/
[GFX][im_path_lzw] = C:/GraphicsMagick/

Me and my system admin don't know why TYPO3 can't create PDF Thumbnails in backend and frontend. Maybe there's something with ghostscript .. but he can create pdfs via windows command line?!? So that's a TYPO3 Problem?!

Thanks for your help or hints. ..

No PDF Thumbnails , see backend

Answer 1

Have you also set the path of GraphicsMagick in TYPO3 admin panel settings>Configuration Presets>Image handling settings>write a path or select a path it should be like this screenshot as below

Answer 2

with installing GraphicsMagick also install Ghostscript on window Server. You can download Ghostscript from here https://www.ghostscript.com/download/gsdnld.html. Before downloading please check also the window is 64 bit or 32 bit.Then again check Environment>image Processing and Test Image. Then in "Image processing" everything is loaded successfully also "Read pdf" and "Read ai"

Answer 3

I have still the same problem. My TYPO3 7.6.24 LTS will not convert PDF- and AI-files to jpg. All other files are working.

Today I've update ghostscript 9.22 and graphicsMagic 1.3.23 on my windows server (IIS). Everything runs with 64bit now.

Successfully, I also tested GraphicsMagick to convert the pdf to jpg via command line cmd.exe, f.e.

"c:\Program Files\GraphicsMagick\gm.exe" -convert -geometry 160x130 c:\temp\test.pdf c:\temp\test123.jpg

But it won't work with TYPO3, see error on initial post ... now I've no idea anymore ..?! anyone else?
