IIS 5.1 has to be restarted due to IM

Post by janetsmith »

I m using IM 6.3.4, winXP IIS 5.1

In my ASP page. note that the line =>msg = img.Convert("version") will cause IIS stop responding.

<%
Set img = Server.CreateObject("ImageMagickObject.MagickImage.1")

msg = img.Convert("version")

Response.Write msg
%>

Are you using ImageMagick 6.3.4-10, the current release? Previously the Apache web server would exit but we added a patch to fix the problem (reduced stack usage in a recursive messaging method). We have not tried the patch with IIS. Give it a try and let us know if it fixes the problem.

N:\Cafe\Tests>convert -version
Version: ImageMagick 6.3.4 06/14/07 Q16 http://www.imagemagick.org

I am not sure if it's 6.3.4-10, because the -version option doesn't give us further detail :)

But I just downloaded it yesterday (June 24, 2007), so it should be the latest version.
