Below is the command

convert ${directory}/${filename} -flip ${directory}/${basename}.flipped.jpg

 

I have attached the screenshot of the dialog properties i have configured

I have verified the permissions for the folder it looks fine. Any help is appreciated.

basically, I think you need to replace ${filename} with the actual filename and similarly for basename and directory as per the example given in the above article

I referred to the same link to implement this and followed the same steps and ended up getting this issue.

${filename} $ {directory} are implicit that is the reason in the stack trace it picks up the image path correctly as highlighted ib bold below

[convert C:\Users\MMANJA~1\AppData\Local\Temp\cqdam3684189622130797275.tmp/yolanda_huggins.jpg -flip C:\Users\MMANJA~1\AppData\Local\Temp\cqdam3684189622130797275.tmp/yolanda_huggins.flipped.jpg] for asset [/content/dam/geometrixx/portraits/yolanda_huggins.jpg]: 

 

Even if i specify absolute path of an image on my machine it throws same error.

Hi,

 

I faced similar issue. This is because 'convert' command is not getting executed through AEM even if it executes from your command prompt. 

For this you need to specify the installation folder of ImageMagick to make it execute.

"C:\Program Files\ImageMagick-6.8.9-Q16\convert.exe" -define jpeg:size=319x319 ${filename} -thumbnail 319x319 cq5dam.thumbnail.319.319.png.

or

C:\Program Files\ImageMagick-6.8.9-Q16\convert -define jpeg:size=319x319 ${filename} -thumbnail 319x319 cq5dam.thumbnail.319.319.png.

Hi Murali,

Was this issue resolved? I am getting the same error (org.apache.commons.exec.ExecuteException: Process exited with an error: 4(Exit value: 4)) and not able to figure out the root cause.

Got it working by using the full path for the convert command of ImageMagick installtion directory "C:\Program Files\ImageMagick-6.8.9-Q16\convert.exe"

Hi bsloki

I'm trying to get it working on Linux server. Are there any specifics. I could not find a single article for ImageMagick in AEM on Linux. Can you please guide me to any documentation available. Thanks a lot.
