How to Install ImageMagick and Imagick on Cpanel Server

ImageMagick is the application for working with images while the Imagick is a PHP extention to modify/create images using the ImageMagick API.

ImageMagick Installation:

  # cd /usr/local/src/
  # wget ftp://ftp.imagemagick.org/pub/ImageMagick/ImageMagick.tar.gz
  # tar zxvf ImageMagick.tar.gz
  # cd ImageMagick-*
  # ./configure
  # make
  # make install

Then install the perl module:

  # cd PerlMagick
  # perl Makefile.PL
  # make
  # make install

You can check the path for the installed ImageMagick by executing the following command:

  # which convert
    /usr/local/bin/convert

Imagick Installation:

Download the imagick source from pecl.php.net and recomplie it.

  # wget http://pecl.php.net/get/imagick-2.3.0.tgz
  # tar -zxvf imagick-2.3.0.tgz
  # cd imagick-2.3.0
  # phpize
  # ./configure
  # make
  # make install

Once the compilation is over you could find the file imagick.so in the /usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20060613 directory.

So add the extension entry imagick.so in the /usr/local/lib/php.ini file.

Entry will be like this:-

  # vi /usr/local/lib/php.ini
  ==============================
  extension_dir = "/usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20060613"
  extension="imagick.so"
  ==============================
  Restart Apache once this is done.

  # /scripts/restartsrv_httpd

Thats it. Check the info.php page now.
