I have installed ImageMagick -- I went through the installation through PuTTy and it tells me that it is installed correctly, and I can see in the directory where it is, and I can see the convert in the place it's supposed to be, and my LocalSettings set $wgUseImageMagick to true and set the location. I doubled the $MaxShellMemory and tripled the $MaxShellTime Even after all this, GIF images refuse to create thumbnails at all, and still only 1 GIF thumbnail renders.

Here are the stats of the wiki. http://wikizilla.org/wiki/Special:Version --- Linux hosting. $wgCacheEpoch didn't work, and regardless I tried to upload small GIF images after I got ImageMagick and even those don't render properly.Manual:Image_administration#Image_thumbnailing I am guessing the two possible things I can have wrong are the "absolute path" for the $wg ImageMagick location thing, which is located outside of the /wiki/ folder ------- or that "the command is executable by the web server process," which I don't know what that means.

We've had this non-rendering GIFs problem for a year now, so please help me out.

Use Manual:thumb.php (on your wiki) to force the generation of a thumbnail of a file from your server. If you enable the display of errors and exception details (see Manual:How to debug) you should see a descriptive error message about what failed in the thumbnail generation.

Also, MediaWiki 1.26 is unsupported. We recommend upgrading.

Where should I put the code found on the thumb.php page? The page doesn't say, for what reason I can't possibly understand. I tried putting the Apache thing in .htaccess but nothing happened? I don't have a clue where the ngix one would even begin to go.

I found this with the Debugging toolbar:

  • ImageGallery::add Kamata-kun Front of Gills.gif
  • Query i2607325_mw1 (343) (slave): SELECT /* LocalFile::loadFromDB Titanollante */ img_size,img_width,img_height,img_bits,img_media_type,img_major_mime,img_minor_mime,img_metadata,img_timestamp,img_sha1,img_user,img_user_text,img_description FROM `mw_image` WHERE img_name = 'Kamata-kun_Leaks_Red_Fluid_from_Gills.gif' LIMIT 1 Didn't find any errors anywhere other than this, I turned on show errors on LocalSettings, turned on errors on the php.ini, and still got no errors.

You don't have to touch any server configuration. What I mean is to do a normal web request (from your browser) to the thumb.php script, which is in the same path as index.php, load.php and api.php, namely http://wikizilla.org/wiki/thumb.php, with the parameters described in the manual page to provide a filename and width, since you're the one knowing which files don't thumbnail properly.
