correct path to netpbm?
« on: February 09, 2003, 09:13:40 AM »
Which is these should I put as the path to netpbm in my settings?

/usr/lib/libpbm.so.9
/usr/lib/libpbm.so.9.23
/usr/lib/libpgm.so.9
/usr/lib/libpgm.so.9.19
/usr/lib/libpnm.so.9
/usr/lib/libpnm.so.9.23
/usr/lib/libppm.so.9
/usr/lib/libppm.so.9.16

Please anyone? Thank you.

AFAI understood, /usr/bin is sufficient as path. The PHP scripts run the proper NetPBM code by themself, provided they are located in /usr/bin (which is usually the case on servers).

still doesn't work

Hi, thanks for the reply, but I still can't get it to work. I keep getting this error message when I try the auto-thumbnail or auto-resize feature in 4Images control panel:

NetPBM error. Wrong path or NetPBM not installed.
Check module settings.

I have tried:
/usr/bin
/usr/lib
/usr/share/doc/netpbm-9.9

as the the path to NetPBM, but nothing works. Can you help please? I'm really getting desperate. My webhosting provider's server runs on intel-powered apache web server using red-hat linux.

Are you sure NetPBM is located in /usr/lib. Ask your provider. If unable, have a look yourself using a shell (tcsh, bash, ssh, whatever ...). You must find your *pbm* packets there. If not, say "find / -name *pbm*", this should search the server for you.

yes, the *pbm files are in /usr/lib but it still gives out a:

NetPBM error. Wrong path or NetPBM not installed.
Check module settings.

whenever I try to click on the auto-thumbnailer or auto-resizer links in my control panel.

Anything else I should check or do? I'll try anything. Thanks.

Sorry, running out of ideas (except that the PBM version is too old for 4images).
