[Typo3] ImageMagick Self Install - Install Tool Path?

[Matt Valenti]

Well ... I haven't got it working but maybe I'm closer.  After spending a 
few hours on this here are my findings so far.

I put the imagemagick-4.2.9 directory under the typo3 directory as suggested
I put the contents of both the imagemagick-4.2.9/bin and 
imagemagick-4.2.9/share directories in the root of the imagemagick-4.2.9 
directory
I set the properties of all files to read/write/execute for Owner, Group, 
Public (just to be absolutely sure rights are not an issue)
I have the following in localconf.php:
$TYPO3_CONF_VARS["GFX"]["im_path"] = '../imagemagick-4.2.9/';
$TYPO3_CONF_VARS["GFX"]["im"] = '1';

I started looking at the function "checkImageMagick" in 
typo3/sysext/install/class.tx_install.php and here's what I found:
1. The files are being found so the path is correct
2. The following if statement is returning false so ImageMagick is not 
enabled

if($this->_checkImageMagick_getVersion($v.$filename.$isExt) > 0 ) {
   $index[$v][$filename]=$this->_checkImageMagick_getVersion($v.$filename.$isExt);
}

3. If I force this statement to true then the install tool recognizes 
ImageMagick as installed.
4. When I go to the "Image Processing" section in the install tool to 
actually test ImageMagick all the tests fail.

I have no idea at this stage if it's a server issue, Typo3 issue or what. 
So any pointers from here would be very appreciated.

Hi Matt

This is how I do it
1) unpack IM into a folder under /typo3
2) in the install tool 'All Configuration' I set the path as relative 
../../../imagemagick-4.2.9/
3) Back in the 'Basic Configuration' you will see the install tool showing 
IM4 was correctly found.
