Running a new laravel project locally I get this error:

Unable to load dynamic library 'C:\xampp\php\ext\php_imagick.dll' - The specified module could not be found

The dll exists but I think having read a number of articles this is down to the version of the dll I have. I have tried a few but I still get this error. Is there a way of identifying the version I need?

Version of XAMPP Control Panel: 3.2.3 & php info:

enter image description here

php_imagick.dll in C:\xampp\php\ext

enter image description here

Any pointers as to how to resolve this?

  • How does `imagick` show up in `phpinfo` if the library can't be loaded? – brombeer Mar 28 '22 at 19:17
  • @brombeer This is exactly why I am asking the question. The dll exisits (or at least a version of it but I suspect it may be the wrong one). But when I run php artisan serve in VS Code this is the error I get. The project still opens fine, but I would like to get to the bottom of the error if possible. – RGriffiths Mar 28 '22 at 20:26
