WampServer and Imagemagick, imagick php module not recogized

Question

I'm using windows 7, 64 bit. I downloaded imagemagick - tested it by opening cmd and typing "convert" and it responded with a bunch of stuff that shows its working in windows. edit: but php does not recognize it.

Other relevant things:

1. Using php 5.3.13

2. Apache 2.2.22

3. Added windows variable: name - MAGICK_HOME value - c:\\imagemagick

Added what appears to be appropriate php_imagick.dll into the php ext folder. (Pasting errors below)

Please let me know if I've supplied enough info for troubleshooting. This is an important issue for me.

The thing is here, it appears this is a very finicky system to add. But because I'm designing some distributable code, its imperative that I can test the imagemagick functionality on localhost.

Answer 1

I read that there can be a bug for windows 64 version. Of course I just assumed that that probably won't apply to me...a type of thinking which is responsible for some many random deaths in this world...

So I installed 32 bit version of Wamp ...and life is good. Imagick/Imagemagick works
