How Do I fix this error?

[dj83]

Hello,

I keep getting the following error when trying to watermark. Please help

Error creating watermarked original! Error code: 1

Command: "/usr/bin/composite" -compose over -gravity SouthEast myurlhere.com/images/wm12.png '/home/dano925/public_html/data/759/DSCF00232.JPG' '/home/dano925/public_html/data/759/DSCF00232.JPG'

Well since your not posting the actual true error without alteration here I am just going to guess.

The server path to your watermark in watermark options means just that. Server path not url. So if your using a url change that. Also if it still does not work after using a path try a gif watermark instead.

that is the full error and the only thing I changed was my url since its an adult site.

On my server I put the watermark (wm12) image in the images folder so wouldn't the server path be images/wm12.png ?

[Chuck S]

Not at all it would be your actual full server path. I can guess based off your error above

/home/dano925/public_html/images/wm12.png

Try that.

Hi Chuck,
I tried my server path and it's still not working. Is this a glitch or something because I tried everything and it's not working.

I am using pp 8.0

This is not a glitch in the software

Your path to the watermark would need to be correct and since your using imagemagicks composite yo want to use a png.

To test your server path and that watermark out you can use gd2 as the image processor which uses png image for a watermark

Remember your error above shows your using a url not a server path what is your error now

[dj83]

I am using gd2 now and my path would be public_html/wm.png and i've also tried /home/dano925/public_html/wm.png

I created a new watermark (wm.png) and added it to my root folder on my server. When i go to watermark my images it just checks them.



If this helps any but the wm.png file is located here:

Content visible to verified customers only.

not sure what your trying to say but your server path is definately

/home/dano925/public_html

what happens if you use the full server path to the watermark includng filename what error do you get this is what I asked and it was not answered.

it's more errors then this but this is all I could get before it finished the upload

This still tells me the same thing I have been saying all along you are not entering the full correct server path to the watermark therefore we can not apply it to the uploaded file.

If you have uploaded the watermark to your webroot the path you enter under watermark options should be

/home/dano925/public_html/wm.png

I know I have pointed out the correct server path based on your errors a few times now. If you place the correct path and filename as I suggest you should fix your error.
