Plug In Problems!

[motox424]

I have downloaded/installed the LR2Mogrify plug-in, along with the required ImageMagick software, and when I go to export, an error comes up saying the action was cancelled, and to look in the LR2Mogrify text on my desktop for reason.

When I do that it shows this--

The system cannot find the path specified.

The error occured when trying to run this command:
"C:/Program Files/ImageMagick-6.4.1-Q16/mogrify.exe" -virtual-pixel mirror -bordercolor "rgb(0%,0%,0%)" -background "rgb(0%,0%,0%)" -gravity northwest -extent 2713x3995 -border 2x2 -bordercolor "rgb(0%,0%,0%)" -background "rgb(0%,0%,0%)" -gravity northwest -extent 2717x3999 -border 6x6 -quality 100 -strip "C:\DOCUME~1\Scott\LOCALS~1\Temp\LR-2-4.jpg"

I have uninstalled and re-installed this several times. i keep getting this, anyone have any recomendations?

BTW, I am only trying to do this to 1 pic

Thanks

Any one

I assume you were at the Timothy Armes site, and it said go to the site below to get the ImageMagick files from this site:
ImageMagick: Install from Binary Distribution

On this site, it kind of recommends to use the FIRST link (ImageMagick-6.4.7-1-Q16-windows-dll.exe).

Don't.

Use the one right below it ( ImageMagick-6.4.7-1-Q16-windows-static.exe )

Try that.....

Yup that's where I got it from, and that is the link I used. I will give the other one a try! Thanks Mr P.

EDIT: Do I use theFTP or the HTTP download?

Shouldn't matter where it comes from. I think your problem is the first link, so the second might be the ticket....

It is a pain to get it installed and going, but it is pretty cool and useful once it is there...

I've been dealing with this for 2 weeks now I tried the other link and I still get the "aborted export" message.

Any other tips or tricks to get this up and running?

I'm on a PC with windows xp

Thanks

What happens if you type the following in an MS-DOS Command Prompt window:
convert logo: logo.gif
identify logo.gif
imdisplay logo.gif

I had the same problems, Scott, along with a few others. Nobody (including Timothy Armes) could/would help, so I finally had to give up on it. I now have to export to PS, add the logo there, then post, then delete. It is quite the PITA, but better than trying to work with the Mogrify program. If you do get it worked out, let me know how you resolved the issue, please.

Ok here's what i found out so far:

#1 I have found out that all the files for mogrify are LUA files(whatever the hell that means) and I do not have a program that reconizes or can open the files, I can download them, but unable to open them

#2 I agree that this has been a PITA for me too, and i'm with you, I am abandoning this and move on

i just wanted to try it and then IF I liked it, I WOULD HAVE DONATED, but as you stated, Timothy would not even reply to questions! Hmmmmmmmmm

Just a thought:

The error message is telling you that it can't find the Mogrify executable and it's looking in the "C:\Program Files\ImageMagick-6.4.1-Q16\" folder, which is the default location for installation.

If you changed the install location during the installation, or if you're running 64-bit Vista, go into the Export dialog under Mogrify Configuration and locate the path to the mogrify.exe file. In Vista 64 it'll be under "Program Files (x86)\ etc.."

Here's a screenshot:
