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.

  • Yes, restarted apache, mysql, xampp and windows too. several times. – Roman Losev Oct 14 '14 at 11:51
  • did you downloaded the dll's specific to your operating system.i mean the dll's are different for 32 bit of windows and 64 bit – coolguy Oct 14 '14 at 11:53
  • dll's specified link in the method is not working, so after hour of searching i found this page with downloadable tar.gz - http://afi-forge.afi-sa.fr/projects/opacce/wiki/Wamp_server_+_Image_magick . It says 32 bit ;S . Method's author mentionted it and wrote to copy these dll's to system32. – Roman Losev Oct 14 '14 at 11:56

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
