Tonight I messaged justhost.com to provide me with the path to the newest version of Imagick they have.
They sent me this:
Hi,
The latest version which we have is
6.4.4.
The path to the ImageMagick is
/usr/local/ImageMagick-6.4.4/
Please let me know if you need more
help. Thank you.

How do I use it or upgrade my php?
my phpinfo(); says I have ImageMagick 6.2.8 10/20/10
Thanks!
If phpinfo says you have it, and the libraries are installed, then you need to look up the imagemagick functions on php.net. If it's available but not installed as a PHP library, you can (maybe) run it with exec(), depending on the host's settings. If neither of those work, get a better hosting plan!

I have a problem getting imagick to work in php 8.0.13 with wamp3.2.6. I have followed several, several tutorials but none seem to have worked.
My PHP version is 8.0.13
Architecture : x64
Thread Safety : Enable
For example i followed this tutorial: https://mlocati.github.io/articles/php-windows-imagick.html and it doesn't work either.
However, with this imagick tutorial, it seems that Imagick is installed. When i do
phpinfo();
Here an Image :
So we see that Imagick seems to be installed.
But, if i try some PHP code like this:
or
nothing is displayed on my web page
Your help will be much appreciated!
Thanks a lot !
Pascal
I fixed my issue...
This webpage is exactly what i did and all is now working
https://mlocati.github.io/articles/php-windows-imagick.html
But also, i deleted all PATH containing ImageMagick of all version because i don't use imagemagick. I only use Imagick in PHP. Also, i added in PATH, the path of my PHP version
Hpe that helps
Ipage says they are running ImageMagick 6.3.3 however, it is not running on the server and there is no way I can find how to enable it. They do not allow to configure any module from control panel.
I contacted support but they could not help saying, it is not 'their' product. Anybody can help setting up Imagick on ipage? I tried to edit php.ini file and reference to php_imagick.dll but that did not solve the problem.
iPage does not support Imagick in PHP
This is their official response after conctacting support
We have ImageMagick binaries. But it is not complied to PHP so IMAGICK
won't work. So, you will not be able to use IMAGICK as PHP built-in
class. You have to use the alternative "convert" utility. Please make
changes accordingly in the script so that it will work fine on our
servers.
So basically you have to use exec() in PHP to use the Imagemagick convert command. Also you cannot use convert command from a shell environment as for as I know.
But there is GD commands available on ipage and for the most part they would be enough for all graphic related functions. In fact in my case, I found that they were rather moreful.
The answer I got from iPage is that PHP Imagick is not available on the Essential Package. To get PHP Imagick I would need to sign up for VPS hosting which is more expensive. For now I am giong to ignore the recommendation from Wordpress to install PHP Imagick. I have installed the Wordpress "ImageMagick Engine" plugin and it is now working with no errors.
I found tons of instructions, how to install Imagick on windows. Here is a very good and detaild explanation.
I am following the instructions. So, first, download the latest DLL from PECL. Copy the php_imagick.dll to the extension dir, copy the _CORE* libraries to PHP root directory, and it shows me the following version: ImageMagick 6.9.1-2 Q16 x64 2015-04-14
Wow, great, now I have nothing to do just install this exe.
Oh, wait...
There are no installer like this. And the problems starts here. Of course, I've tried to download and install the latest installer, installed it, set the environment variables, but it always says something about entry points.
I don't know why Imagick guys removes the releases from their ftp, I think this is a very bad behaviour. Can not access from archive too.
So I am unable to installing the Imagick.
Can anybody help me with this version of installer, or give me a step-by-step instruction, how to install this Imagick for Windows 10, 64bit for Apache 2.4.2 64bit, and PHP 5.6.5 64bit?
I tried the 32bit version, but with that, the phpinfo() does not show me anything.
EDIT: There is an alternative download location here.
I started a thread on the Imagick forum, and now I don't know, should I cry or should I laugh...
The answer for my question was this:
Hmm... it seems we don't build our libraries with 'deprecated' methods. I will see if we can change this before the next release so DrawAllocateWand will not suddenly be gone.
I tell to the guy, ok, it's a cool thing, but I've just reinstall my machine from the scratch, so, I got this error:
Procedure entry point (DrawAllocateWand) not found in DLL
or something similar, I translated it.
So, please tell me, where can I download the ImageMagick 6.9.1-2 Q16 x64 2015-04-14 binaries, because it seems, that php_imagick.dll need this, and I should work...
The answer was:
We don't keep an archive of old binary version of ImageMagick. You could however decide to build IM from source.
CONCLUSION
If you ever had a working installer for windows for Apache, PHP, Imagick, you should always keep these in the cloud for yourself. MHO: I really hate these things. I know, most of us is working on linux boxes, but our company policy is to use OS what admin says. So I need to use windows. Now I should suck for a while, to download and install a cygwin with compilers, compile the Imagick somehow, and set all the environments variables, because some developers do not use a version controller, or maybe the sotrage is too expensive for them to store old binaries... I can not imagene these options.
ImageMagick is available here:
http://windows.php.net/downloads/pecl/deps/
Imagick, that has been compiled against that version of ImageMagick is available here
http://windows.php.net/downloads/pecl/releases/imagick/3.4.0rc5/
Downloading random versions of libraries from other places is not guaranteed to work.
I am getting error mentioned in the subject when trying to upload in wordpress admin interface.
My server's running nginx with php-fpm, PHP version is 5.3.0.
I've googled quite some regarding this problem but I wasn't able to find any solution. Is there a way to enable JPG support for GD without recompiling the PHP completely? (I've tried to follow that path but I can't get ./configure with all the needed to complete properly and I just don't have time to fix all the errors with all the libraries).
Thanks!
No. You'll have to recompile php.
Is there a .dll version of the inclued extension for PHP?
The manual's link for Inclued on PECL4WIN doesn't help. I don't have a compiler to build my own DLL.
NOTE: The spelling "inclued" is correct!
Edit: I don't have a compiler, but do know someone with one... that's really a last resort though.
As best as I can tell, the Windows version doesn't exist anymore. Maybe whoever was maintaining it before had to stop for some reason.
I wonder what it takes to compile a PECL extension under Windows.
Edit
Here's some info on compiling a different PECL extension on Windows. You may be able to extrapolate to the inclued extension.
Edit
WAMP Server comes with PECL & PEAR. I can actually run the command pecl install inclued-alpha from the Windows command-line and it goes out and tries to grab the inclued extension from the PECL site.
Unfortunately it dies when it unpacks the .tgz file and tries to compile it
ERROR: The DSP inclued.dsp does not exist.
Which version of PHP are you running? I know someone that can compile you a version.
update
Alright, got this compiled - I've tested on my 5.2.6 build and it seems to work fine.
I've been told there may be problems using it in a threaded environment (e.g. Windows) but that's only a maybe. Also:
[13:10] <g0pz> the inclued dumpfiles will collide, because it uses PID # + increments
[13:11] <g0pz> but command line should work ok
[13:12] <g0pz> is the threaded apache version which'll have the same PID and well, a "possible" collision
So good luck with it :)
download
Poke me if you have any issues with inclued.
I'm just on the verge of putting out a release, I'll do a mkstemp() in windows instead of picking the PID + count.
Hopefully also with a gensvg.php which'll render the di-graph in-browser with pear::Image::GraphViz.
Isn't this their DLL download site? http://pecl4win.php.net/list_dlls.php
Unless I'm off on my browsing of the site?
Is this the page you are looking for?
http://pecl4win.php.net/list_dlls.php
..edit: (man, we are fast. I swear these two duplicate answers were posted simultaniously)
The official PHP for Windows site says:
PECL For Windows
PECL extensions for Windows is being worked on. The interface on the
pecl website will most likely be updated to offer Windows DLL download
right from that website. In the meantime, some extensions can be found
here.
That "here" link leads to http://downloads.php.net/pierre/, where you will find, among the multitude of other extensions, builds of inclued for PHP 5.2 and 5.3, VC6 and VC9, thread-safe and non-thread-safe. The one matching my version of PHP seems to be working.
