Imagick on Windows 8 xampp

I want to install imagick on windows 8 64bit, xampp. I have tried all methods in internet how to solve this problem, but none helped me ( have tried more than 10 methods ).

In all results i get error while launching apache.

  • Apache 2.2.21
  • PHP 5.3.8
  • Windows 8 64

Latest method i have tried: http://w3facility.info/question/how-to-install-imagemagick-for-php5-35-4-on-windows-8-x64/

In case i change to extension=php_imagick_nts.dll error looks like:

The program can't start because php5.dll is missing...

In case i change to

The program can't start because CORE_RL_wand_.dll is missing...

Method's suggestion to copy dll's to windows/system32, didn't helped me.

To help you and me, questions you might ask:

  1. Have you restarted xampp? Yes
  2. Have you restarted windows? Yes
  3. Have you added path? Yes
  4. Does CMD command convert gives proper answer? Yes
  5. What path you installed Imagick? C:\imagemagick

Errors: After install ImageMagick-6.8.9-8-Q16-x64-dll.exe

php_imagick_ts.dll' - %1 is not va valid Wind32 application.

Solution

  • I have solved the problem only by installing latest xampp version (XAMPP Version 1.8.3) and continued the method: Running ImageMagick on XAMPP 1.8.3 with Windows 7
