    Hi, I have installed phpThumbOf, just like for any other project through the package management tool. I have never had a problem with it working before, but on my most recent website project, it does not work. Let me clarify. I have a TV as an image called *blog-author. The user can upload a portfolio photo of a person. I am using the getResources snippet to make a list of blog entries. The photo is reference in the tpl as such [[+blog-author:phpthumbof=`w=70&h=80&zc=1`]]. In all of my other projects, this works no problem. Even on the same webserver. This time however, when it parces, it just produces the original image and not a resized one. I looked in the error logs and it seems to try to save or reference the optimized image in the wrong directory. It duplicates a directory in the path: This is one excerpt from the error log:
    [27] => ImageMagick failed with message (convert: unable to open image `/home/zeugs/public_html/cameraoriginals//cameraoriginals/admin-files/blog-portrait-photos/hoffinger-Birger.jpg’: @ error/blob.c/OpenBlob/2489.
    convert: missing an image filename `png:/home/zeugs/public_html/cameraoriginals/pThumbM9kUyV’ @ error/convert.c/ConvertImageCommand/2923.) in file "phpthumb.class.php" on line 1834

    It duplicates the folder where the website is installed "/cameraoriginals/"

    This error happens a few more times in the error log, where ImageMagick is directed to the wrong directory.

    I tried uninstalling phpthumbof and reinstalling, but there was no change.

    anyone have any ideas?

    Thanks!

      A few others have had a similar issue with the ’double folders’ - have a look here.

      Try it out but revert back if it doesn’t solve the problem.

        Hi Lucas,

        Well, that was sure enough it! What I don’t understand though is that I have used phpthumbof in other projects and have not entcountered this problem until now. Strange, isn’t it?

        Thanks a ton!!
