Tristan,

I had a similar problem with ezP2.
The problem was solved, after I removed the > character from the Exec call to "convert". The > is used for redirection and, when safe mode was on, was replaced by some other character, thus the call to convert did not work.
About the "reference" dir: I think, every image is stored in the "original" folder. Then, it is converted to a "reference" size. From this size, the other convertions (variations) are created.
As the first call to "convert" did not work, your reference Dir is empty and so, no variations can be created.

I don't know, what was changed in 3.2Beta1.

Hi Marco,

Could you tell me where did you find the Exec call to convert ? I have the same problem.

I've a similar problem.
The upload works fine, the image is in the directory
var/storage/original/image/
but it is not displayed on the page:
<img src="/var/storage/variations/image/p/h/p" alt="" />

Whats wrong? Can someone help?

Look in:

settings/image.ini

There you can change where ez finds the image program needed to create your variations.

Hi

This bug is reported here : http://www.ez.no/developer/ez_publish_3/bug_reports/convert_doesnt_work_when_located_in_a_directory_with_spaces_on_windows

At the current time it looks like a php error. Executing commands in php using "<path and executable with spaces>" works, but the when adding the parameter, ex: "800x600>" it is not executed correctly. The " are needed here because of the > option. It looks like php ignores " characters when the executable is inside ".

The easiest solution for this problem is adding convertim.exe to path, or install/move it to a directory without spaces.
