I had had problems before installing ImageMagick so at some point I figured I had to have a higher version than the perl 5.8.0 that I had on my system since I saw the status message say 'perl version greater or equal to 5.8.0 - no' - and on another system i ran the same configure and got a yes - so I upgrade the perl on my server. According to ImageMagick.org the way to test which version one has installed you call: convert -v on the command line which returned the above result. The default path for convert is /usr/local/bin/convert - also true. So my question is why linpha won't find ImageMagick during installation. I've installed this software probably 50 times already without any problems. If the system didn't have the right ImageMagick version installed I would install it - linpha would find it - and everything went fine. I've tried various version of ImageMagick - from the newest down to 5.5.6 - to no avail - I would greatly appreciate it if someone could help me explain why I'm failing so miserably here. I searched throw many posts and couldn't find a post so far that stated the same problem I had - if I should have missed it I appologize.
Thanks in advance for taking the time and I hope
someone can help me with my dead end ;(

If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
do a "which convert" from commandline and look for the path where it's located. Open /functions/other.php and search for the function named check_convert().
some lines below there is the following line:
$array_lookfor = get_PATH(Array('/bin','/usr/bin','/usr/local/bin','/sw/bin'));
append the path if it's not already there.
If already installed, you can also change the path to convert in the linpha_config table.

Hi lextech,
do a "which convert" from commandline and look for the path where it's located. Open /functions/other.php and search for the function named check_convert().
some lines below there is the following line:
$array_lookfor = get_PATH(Array('/bin','/usr/bin','/usr/local/bin','/sw/bin'));
