[Jmagick-users] Fwd: Null scaled image returned

[Hrishikesh B. <ta...@gm...>]

Hello,

While using JMagick 6.4.0 on Ubuntu 12.04 with Java 1.6.0_29, I am
encountering a problem where the returned object from the
scaleImage(widget, height) method is null.

Code sample:
.................
ImageInfo info = new ImageInfo(filepath);
MagickImage originalImage = new MagickImage(info);
MagickImage scaledImage = originalImage.scaleImage(w, h);
------------------
"filepath" exists and is a valid image file. scaledImage returns null some
of the times when we continuously process images.

I've seen this happen once in a while, for every 20-30 images processed.
Upon retrying with the same image, it works fine.
We have not noticed any other OS level issues like CPU, memory or disk
usage problems. Google does not turn up anything related.

Is this a known problem? Has anybody else encountered anything similar? Any
pointers on how to debug this?
