Re: "Unable to verify" - Fails to find ImageMagick, GS and Exiftool

Did you confirm that the locations specified for Imagemagick, FFmpeg, Ghostscript, and ExifTool are correct? Typically, these are set to the bin location or the folder that contains the executables.

Hi,

I have just installed ResourceSpace "ResourceSpace_4_6_3726.zip" on my Windows 2008 vServer.

The first problem I had was solved by this thread: GGroups Threads

So I created a config.php on my own. This helped getting ResourcePage to run, but has not solved the problem, that RS cannot find the (correctly) installed applications (ImageMagick, GS and Exiftool).

On the "Installation Check Screen" in ResourceSpace there are strange paths shown:

ImageMagick/GraphicsMagick		FAIL: 'c:/imagemagick\convert.exe' not found
FFmpeg		FAIL: 'c:/ffmpeg/bin\ffmpeg.exe' not found
Ghostscript		FAIL: 'C:/gs/gs9.06/bin\gs' not found
EXIF extension		FAIL
ExifTool		FAIL: 'c:/exiftool\exiftool.exe' not found

Does somebody has an idea how I can get this running?

Thanks in advance.

Sascha

I'm having this same problem (except that my FFmpeg is working properly) Has anyone been able to figure out a solution to this problem?

Thanks,

Actually, after some more troubleshooting, I think I have it figured out.

I uninstalled and deleted all files off of C:. After reinstalling, I made sure to copy the actual file paths (versus typing them in on the ResourceSpace config file). The most interesting one was Ghostscript. After the reinstall, the actual file path was C:/gs/bin (without the version number file). Not sure why it installed without that but everything checks out as "ok" now!

Yes, unfortunately the Windows documentation for Resource Space is very patchy and not always great practice - you can actually install all the extras to their default location in Program Files without any issues whatsoever.

I would recommend downloading the most recent version of Ghostscript (9.18) from http://ghostscript.com/download/ so you're using the most recent versions of the programs.
