Rails 3 and RefineryCMS - Dragonfly::Shell::CommandFailed in Refinery::Admin::ImagesController#create

2.5k views Asked by At

Looks like multiple people have this same/similar issues and there are a couple of reported fixes for it that I've found on SO here . Unfortunately, they are not working for me. I'm running MacOS Lion. Here is what I've done so far:

1) Standard RefineryCMS install. Runs well except for uploading images. 2) Once I encounter the problem, I added a configuration file per the Dragonfly docs:

# configure/initializers/dragonfly.rb
require 'dragonfly/rails/images'

3) That didn't work. I reinstalled ImageMagick. Confirmed ImageMagick is installed:

# whereis convert
/usr/bin/convert
# whereis identify
/usr/bin/identify

4) That didn't fix things, so I set up symbolic links for /usr/bin and /usr/local/bin:

lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  22 Aug  4 11:00 /usr/bin/convert -> /opt/local/bin/convert
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  23 Aug  4 11:01 /usr/bin/identify -> /opt/local/bin/identify
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  admin  22 Aug  4 11:06 /usr/local/bin/convert -> /opt/local/bin/convert
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  admin  23 Aug  4 11:07 /usr/local/bin/identify -> /opt/local/bin/identify

5) That didn't work so I set up a new config file per the Dragonfly docs and some additional instructions:

# config/initializers/dragonfly.rb
require 'dragonfly'

app = Dragonfly[:images]
app.configure_with(:imagemagick)
app.configure_with(:rails)

app.define_macro(ActiveRecord::Base, :image_accessor)

app.configure do |c|
  c.convert_command = "/opt/local/bin/convert"          # defaults to "convert"
  c.identify_command = "/opt/local/bin/identify"        # defaults to "identify"
  c.log_commands = true                                 # defaults to false
end

6) That did not fix it. Based on a GitHub issue I added this

# config/application.rb
module Refincmstest
  class Application < Rails::Application
    # trying a fix for image magic
    initializer 'override-image-magick-paths', :after => 'attach-refinery-images-with-dragonfly' do
      Dragonfly[:refinery_images].configure do |c|
        c.convert_command = "/opt/local/bin/convert"          # defaults to "convert"
        c.identify_command = "/opt/local/bin/identify"        # defaults to "identify"
      end
    end
  end
end

And that that did not work. Here is the console output, if this helps:

I'm out of ideas. Any suggestions on where to go next?

Did some more researching and found that although I had used Mac Ports to update ImageMagick, my installation was somehow corrupt. I found this by trying to execute the /opt/local/bin/identify command manually. Multiple attempts to reinstall with Map Ports failed (Mac Ports has some very serious problems running on a mac book air running lion.) I installed Mac Brew and and installed ImageMagick via brew. After removing my symbolic links and ensuring that dragonfly was configured to point to /usr/local/bin everything worked.

Moral of the story - Don't use Mac Ports if you are on a MacBook Air running Lion. The install of multiple ImageMagick prerequisites fail even after reinstalling Mac Ports with the latest version. Similar thing happened to me a few months ago with another Mac Ports install. Had to temporarily retro back a previous version of the Mac dev tools. Such a pain.

I had this error after upgrading to OS X Yosemite. Since I installed imagemagick with brew I run brew doctor and it reported various problems and, among them, a symlink problem too. I followed the instructions to solve all the problems and now it's working again.
