I needed to install rmagick/GraphicsMagick on an IntelMac and did so from Darwinports. Some things work and others don''t work, like rendering fonts which needs X11 fonts and X server. The rmagick page at rubyforge points to .. http://developer.apple.com/opensource/tools/runningx11.html where X11 link to Apple is broken.

Is there a pre-built disk image for rmagic on OSX (including image magic and all the other pre-requisites)? I''ve seen that it comes on the Locomotive image but I don''t want to replace my entire development environment. Does anybody have a sense of how reliable it is on OSX? I''ve seen some fairly negative comments when googling, but that''s not the best way to

Hello all. I''m a seasoned system administrator and have no fear of building source packages on a variety of platforms, but RMagick has, until recently, evaded all of my attempts to building it on my PowerBook. Someone else just mentioned that they had trouble with RMagick on OS X (Intel, don''t really know if my advice will help) so I decided to post a HOWTO to the list. I

Has anyone implemented a captcha with ruby on rails and rmagick?

I have a subversion repo on a Debian Sarge server. I do rails development on two Debian workstations (home, work) and also a MacBookPro. I installed subversion from Darwinports. Things worked ok for a while and I did commits from and updates to all three machines until today. When I did svn status I noticed a lock on the working dir. $ svn status ? Rakefile ? readme !

This is a strange bug that I''ve never seen before.

Hi, I''ve been doing most of my initial playing with rails on a windows system - but wish to switch to a dedicated linux box for this. Are there any particular distro''s to avoid / recommend. I prefer debian for my other stuff, but thought i''d ask before going ahead. :) Cheers -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hello Railslist, I''m trying to get Gruff running on OSX Tiger (intel) with edge Rails. I''ve installed ImageMagick, Rmagick, FreeType and all their dependencies, or so I believe. (I''ve compiled them from source mostly, following a recent tutorial for Rails and ImageMagick on Intel Macs) While following the sample on the Gruff downloadpage (the one with the fruit), Rails

hi guys, I have been trying to install Rmagick on ubuntu karmic koala for a day. Yes, ImageMagicK has already been installed and works great with paperclip and a few other perl scripts I have (which uses Image::Magick).

Hello all fellow Mac OS X Railers. I''m just setting up a new MacBook from scratch. Everything has gone very easily, so I decide to attempt to install RMagick from scratch once again, something that I''ve wrestled with in the past, finally punting and going with a DarwinPorts ImageMagick install then direct gem install of RMagick. Well, I had no problems and have achieved

Hi all, I''ve been trying to install GraphicsMagick with RMagic. I''ve tried ImageMagick with RMagic as well. I''ve tried the installations using Darwin Ports, Gems and from source. Nothing seems to work properly. My specs: ruby --version ruby 1.8.4 (2005-12-24) [powerpc-darwin8.5.0] rails --version Rails 1.1.0 convert -version Version: ImageMagick 6.1.8 04/05/06 Q16

This is off-topic because it''s installation specific, but I wondered if anyone could point me in the right direction. I installed ImageMagick and RMagick on my MacBook Pro using Darwin Ports and the normal gem install, respectively. I got the dreaded "bus error." I read Tom Mornini''s discussion about installing GraphicsMagic and then RMagick, so I used port uninstall

Hi all, i was experimenting with rmagick but i cant find a way to do this.

Hi folks, I''m a linux noob, and I''m trying to pick a distro for my rails server. I don''t want to start a flame-war about linux distros! I''m interested in the best distribution for these criteria: 1 - Simplicity of getting ruby and rails set-up (gem updates) 2 - Stability (it is a server, after all) 3 - Support resources (community, and as a fall-back, paid

Hi, I''m using the basic magick features of file_column, and while files are uploading fine without the magick options, as soon as I do something like :magick => { :size => "400x600" } I get an ''invalid file'' error. Further investigation reveals that the file is in fact invalid because something somewhere is truncating the file path:

Hello list, I''m having a problem getting Gruff working with Rails on a Windows XP box. I installed RMagick, then Gruff via the win32 gem, and it seemed to go OK.
