MagickWand Extension for PHP :: Installation Instructions ** REQUIRED ** ImageMagick version :: 6.3.5-9 Last-known-good ImageMagick version :: 6.3.5-9 Install without PHP source 1) Either install the required ImageMagick version or make sure that it is installed (running "Wand-config --version" should give you the required information). 2) Type phpize ./configure make make install 3) Add extension=magickwand.so to your "php.ini" initialization file. Install with PHP Source 1) Either install the required ImageMagick version or make sure that it is installed (running "Wand-config --version" should give you the required information). 2) Extract the contents of the archive this file was in, or copy the entire directory the this file is in to the "ext" directory in the PHP source folder. Rename the folder to "magickwand" so if your PHP source folder is called "PHP_SRC_DIR", you should end up with a directory structure like the following: PHP_SRC_DIR/ext/magickwand/ 3) Go into the "PHP_SRC_DIR/ext/magickwand/" directory, and run "phpize". (A note: if this is the first time PHP is being installed, you have to install PHP without MagickWand, because "phpize" is a part of the PHP distribution.) 4) Go back to the main PHP source directory (from the example above, it would be "PHP_SRC_DIR", and run: rm ./configure and then ./buildconf --force to remove and rebuild the PHP configure script. 5) Follow the PHP installation instructions, but add --with-magickwand=IMG_MGCK_DIR to your ./configure command, replacing "IMG_MGCK_DIR" with the full path of the directory where ImageMagick is installed (in most cases "/usr").
