What server features are needed for image editing?

Wappler General Need Help

I have image uploading working really well but now I want to add the facility to resize (scale down) uploaded images. I’ve followed the docs on this and found it really straightforward but it’s not working.

What are the needed features on the server for this to work? I’m think GD or ImagaMagick.

Gd2 is usually installed and that is all you need on php servers

gd is on there - bundled (2.1.0 compatible) - so I’m at a loss as to why it’s not working. Any ideas what I can do to sort it?

What is not working? Do you get an error or so?

The console just shows a 500 error. I disabled actions to establish which was failing and it is the Resize Image action.

well follow the standard procedure:

A-ha, I didn’t dig deep enough. It was a memory issue. I’ve increased it to 512MB and it’s working.

Thanks, as always, for the speedy replies. I thought I knew my way around the dev console but I keep finding new stuff in there!
