Ok. It take me a while, but I reinstalled ImageMagick with marked option "convert". Now, when I start elog, it can see ImageMagick, but
screenshots attached to elog entries are still in original sizes. And, I don't see buttons for rotating, resizing images.
I look into elog cfg options, but only what I found is Thumbnail size which, it looks, don't work. |

Hi,
Maybe the post is outdated already, but I want to share my experience anyway. I faced the same problem as Daniel: The most recent ImageMagick
package was not detected by elogd even though it was installed. I could trace back the problem to the following issue: |

Update:
While the image scaling via ImageMagick works when running elog manually it doesn't when running elog as a service. The service
is hosted in the same user environment that allows image scaling with elog started manually. What else could go wrong? |

Must be your PATH environment variable. You have usually different paths when running interactively or as a service. Try to change the path seen by services,
or put the ImageMagick executable in the same directory as elogd.

This I do not fully understand: To my understanding the PATH environment variable (includes the ImageMagick path) is a system variable
and should be accessable from any account and should be valid under any conditions. Am I wrong? Additionally, I tried adding the system
Path variable to the user specific variables for that user that runs the service (Path = %Path%) in the system settings. Finally, I tried copying the imdisplay.exe |

I don't undersand myself fully how services see the environment. Like if they see the PATH at all. In some occations it helped to run the service
not under the SYSTEM account, but under the (admin) account of a real user.

Ah sorry. I recall now: Under Windows, calling subprocesses from a service does not work at all. After a couple of days of work I was not able to get
this running. If somebody has some idea, I'm happy to try it. So most people use the elogd daemon in the background only under Linux.

Ok, this explains why it doesn't work.
Thank you for the support anyway. ELOG is a great piece of software.
