Talk:HiDPI display support

I get an error importing retina-sized images: Error creating thumbnail: /bin/bash: /usr/bin/convert: No such file or directory

When I import a "normal-sized" image, the thumbnail appears properly.

I'm guessing this is part of the known issues relating to HiDPI images, but I haven't seen anyone mention it explicitly. The error message is extremely misleading (unless it's not and something else is going on).

I create retina images by taking a screen shot on a MacBook Pro with Retina display. I open the image in SnagIt and resave using the "Save using Retina size" check box. I then upload the file to my Mediawiki instance.

Product 	Version MediaWiki 	1.21.1 PHP 	5.3.3 (apache2handler) MySQL 	5.1.69

(This is running on an AWS server...)

The Full resolution version link works fine: the image appears as it should (i.e, huge). But the thumbnail on the page does not appear and instead displays the error message as reported above.
