[cobalt-users] ImageMagick install on a Raq4

["Michelle" <support@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Leslie

We used the following instructions for our Raq4 & it worked 100%
Installation (Unix)

Download each of the following installation files to your desktop:

ImageMagick-5.5.4-3.tar.gz - ImageMagick and PerlMagick Sources
jpegsrc.v6b.tar.gz - JPEG Sources
libpng-1.2.5.tar.gz - PNG Sources
tiff-v3.5.7.tar.gz - TIFF Sources
zlib-1.1.4.tar.gz - ZLIB Sources - Required by PNG

The file names (above) should tell you what each is. They are the source
code compression kits for popular graphical formats.


Using an FTP utility, log in to your server and create a directory called
Installation_Files anywhere you want.


Upload, to your server, each of the files you downloaded above, in Binary
format, to this newly created directory. Take note of the path to the
directory you created as you will need to access it via SSH or Telnet in a
minute.


Login to your server via SSH or Telnet and switch to root user.


If you are on a Unix or Linux server, using a server-based text editor such
as Pico or Vi, add the following line (on a new line) to the file
"/etc/ld.so.conf"

/usr/local/lib


Navigate to the Installation_Files directory by typing

cd /PATH/TO/YOUR/Installation_Files


Install the JPEG sources by typing the following. On the configure, make,
and make install steps below, you will see output from your server. Please
wait for each process to complete before continuing.

cd jpeg-6b
./configure --enable-shared
make
make install
cd /PATH/TO/YOUR/Installation_Files


Install the ZLIB sources by typing the following. On the configure, make,
and make install steps below, you will see output from your server. Please

cd /PATH/TO/YOUR/Installation_Files

Note: The * above can be one of a number of extensions depending on your
server type. See the INSTALL file distributed with libpng for more
information.

and make install steps below, you will see output from your server. Please
wait for each process to complete before continuing.

ble-lzw
make
make install
cd /PATH/TO/YOUR/Installation_Files

Change '/usr/bin/perl' (above) to the path to Perl on your system.


That's it.

Hope this helps

Michelle
