Paperclip on Windows: [paperclip] An error was received while processing: #<Paperclip::Errors::NotIdentifiedByImageMagickError>

Question

I'm getting this error in development when I try to upload a file.

Command :: file -b --mime "C:/Users/Chloe/AppData/Local/Temp/dfeacdebdd52607b78a0eca093c2ed7a20170510-45680-1dipvsw.jpg"
Command :: identify -format '%wx%h,%[exif:orientation]' "C:/Users/Chloe/AppData/Local/Temp/dfeacdebdd52607b78a0eca093c2ed7a20170510-45680-ns50at.jpg[0]" 2>NUL
[paperclip] An error was received while processing: #<Paperclip::Errors::NotIdentifiedByImageMagickError: Paperclip::Errors::NotIdentifiedByImageMagickError>

I don't have identify command and it's not installed with ImageMagick (at least not anymore).

I installed ImageMagick from chocolatey . This question is similar, but out of date with no relevant answers.

Version: ImageMagick-7.0.5-Q16, paperclip (5.1.0)

Answer 1

You have to install

https://chocolatey.org/packages/imagemagick.tool

Instead. But you also have to adjust your path so ImageMagick's convert is before Window's convert

>where convert
C:\Windows\System32\convert.exe
C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\bin\convert.exe

Oh, and use refreshenv and restart your server.
