rails 3 paperclip imagemagick problem - ruby-on-rails

I have been trying to get paperclip working for a few days now with no luck! From what I am aware this error below is related to imagemagick. I have tried to uninstall and install imagemagick both with macports and manually. Also, have Paperclip.options[:command_path] = "/usr/local/bin" set. It's starting to drive me nuts!
Photo /var/folders/A7/A7X8PAnOFsCTHkFpeODoO++++TI/-Tmp-/stream,65411,0.jpeg is not recognized by the 'identify' command.
I'm running snow leopard.
This appears when I run the rails server..
"/Users/michaelorcutt/shudder/vendor/plugins/paperclip/lib/paperclip.rb:50: warning: already initialized constant VERSION"

I've seen this problem when I was configuring ImageMagick for Rails 3 on OSX. After installing ImageMagick from mac ports and then the binary things still didn't work correctly. What finally did the trick ? finding the location of the identify binary.
which identify
put that path into your :
Paperclip.options[:command_path] =
And it should finally work.

Here is the list of things that needs to be checked for error "NotIdentifiedByImageMagickError":
Ensure that Imagemagick is installed on your system and its in the ENV path
try the command $ which identify Or $which convert.
For Ubuntu its usally in /usr/local/bin or /usr/bin.
Note the path of the above command and update the config/environments/development.rb (if
you are working in dev mode) with the following line.
Paperclip.options[:command_path]= '/usr/bin'
Incase, if you are still facing the issue check the installation of ImageMagick. If you installed from the source, the may be try packaged installation ( sudo apt-get install imagemagick)

I currently use Paperclip, ImageMagick from macports in my Snow Leopard and havent seen that issue, are you sure that file is jpg? Try renaming it to jpg (it would be stupid, but you have to rule out everything).
Try opening several of your JPG files in a text editor, and open that one and see if the first 4 characters match (or better yet do it in a binary editor). Maybe it is a file your operating system or other software recognizes as image, but is not an actual jpg and ImageMagick is confused.

Dot cannot be run in Pycharm with Sphinx and Graphviz

I am trying to create a class diagram with sphinx. For this I created a virtual environment in Pycharm and added this to conf.py:
extensions = ['sphinx.ext.autodoc','sphinx.ext.inheritance_diagram']
In my spamfilter.rst file I added the following lines:
Diagrams
=================
.. inheritance-diagram:: spamfilter
The output is not a diagram and looks like this.
The following warning is displayed:
WARNING: dot command 'dot' cannot be run (needed for graphviz output), check the graphviz_dot setting
When I look into the folder C:\Users\Name\PycharmProjects\documentation\venv\Lib\site-packages\graphviz, there is a dot.py file, so I do not understand what is wrong. A similar question for Mac OS has been asked here. I tried the solution but it seems like it only works for Mac, because when I paste export PATH=$PATH:~/opt/bin to the Pycharm Terminal, it tells me that the command export could not be found. Honestly I have problems understanding why sometimes you can just use packages and other times they cannot be found even when they are installed, I am self-taught and a beginner.
The "pip install graphviz" command installs a Python package that provides an interface to Graphviz (https://pypi.org/project/graphviz). This package is not required by Sphinx.
In order to create inheritance diagrams with Sphinx, the actual Graphviz toolkit (including dot.exe) must be installed. See https://www.graphviz.org.
If dot.exe is not in the PATH, you can use the graphviz_dot configuration option.
I had the same problem where rendering a C4 model with PlantUML didn't work in the IDE (PyCharm 2022.2.1 Pro) on a newer M1 MacOS Monterey. I had it working on a Big Sur intel Mac prior to the upgrade with no extra effort, so the chip change caused me to go down a lot of paths with Rosetta and so on that were all unsuccessful.
The error was:
Dot Executable: /opt/local/bin/dot
File does not exist
Cannot find Graphviz.
Graphviz was installed correctly, and dot was on my path, but it wasn't in /opt/local/bin/dot. Since it was in /opt/homebrew/bin/dot, all I needed to do was link the actual file with the path it was searching for:
cd /opt
sudo ln -s homebrew local
et voilĂ , PyCharm is now correctly rendering the puml in the IDE.

Installing Wine on Mac OS Catalina. Error: No available formula with the name "wine"

I'm trying to install Wine on my Mac via Brew. I'm using Catalina and just updated brew, installed XQuartz and have Xcode installed. When I type the command "Brew install wine" it returns the following:
Error: No available formula with the name "wine"

I was able to build Wine 64 bit from source on macOS Catalina and successfully run Notepad++ 64 bit on it.
My steps were more or less something like that:
Download Wine 4.20 from https://dl.winehq.org/wine/source/4.x/wine-4.20.tar.xz
Extract it
In terminal go to extracted directory
Run: ./configure --enable-win64
It showed that it cannot find some library (I do not remember what exactly) so I installed it with macports (sudo port install name_of_missing_package reported by ./configure)
After I was able to run ./configure --enable-win64 succesfully without errors in terminal run: make
It compiled after more than 30 minutes.
I run it with: ./wine start
It opened windows console and here I was able to cd to Notepad++ 64 bit directory (downloaded from https://notepad-plus-plus.org/repository/7.x/7.0/npp.7.bin.x64.zip note that newest version did not work and throwed some errors about some dll's)
I typed notepad++ to run exe file
It showed some errors about freetype fonts so I installed them with macports and I had to copy them from /opt/X11/lib to /usr/local/lib before wine detected them
After fixing freetype fonts problem I was able to run notepad++
Also you might want to run: sudo spctl --master-disable to disable gatekeeper if you will see some system alerts about loading app from unknown developer.
Also note that instead of ./wine start you can run ./wine explorer for graphical file manager instead of console
Those steps might not be exactly precise, as I'm not sure if I did not miss something but hope it will help someone.
Also note that obviously wine on macOS Catalina will be able to run only some 64 bit windows apps and all 32 bit windows app will not work. I also tested it with IrfanView 64 bit (https://www.fosshub.com/IrfanView.html?dwl=iview453_x64_setup.exe) and it also works fine.
In case you wanted to get wine working for purpose of running 32 bit games then unfortunately it will not work with wine but you can try with virtualbox. You can check https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3AO8dF0vviQ for some performance improvements tips.
Wine hast been removed from homebrew due to the incompatibility to Macos Catalina
https://discourse.brew.sh/t/issue-with-wine/6188/3
Try using wine64 to run your .exe files after installing wine. The manuals and references don't seem to mention this explicitly.
More Info
I followed the guidance in the wine manual to install using home-brew. After install, I got an error when trying to test the installation like it says in the quickstart.
Install wine-stable using homebrew
brew tap homebrew/cask-versions
brew install --cask --no-quarantine wine-stable
After install, test by opening notepad
wine notepad
zsh: bad CPU type in executable: wine
While uninstalling wine, I noticed one of the linked libraries was called wine64. I immediately reinstalled and tried again using wine64 as the call, as I am using wine on an M1 Mac. This was successful!
You can also use winehelp to get access to more commands that will work with 64bit processor.
Based on https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pull/46556#issuecomment-559938873 you can do brew cask install wine-stable on newer version of OS X. And works with recent versions of homebrew since the source version was moved :(
How to install wine on Mac OS Catalina with brew
install homebrew with
/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install.sh)"
install xquartz to install wine using brew
brew cask install xquartz
install wine using brew
brew install homebrew/cask-versions/wine-devel
run wine and check the version
wine64 --version
As of Wine 5.0 there is no 32bit support on mac in the official version, but you are able to achieve it via the
Unofficial Wineskin Winery
You can download it from github releases here. And then create a Wineskin with WS11WineCX[64/32]bit19.0.[0/1]. All WS11 versions support Catalina. To use it you also need to turn off the no32exec boot argument. You theoretically can do it by typing:
sudo nvram boot-args="no32exec=0"
into the Terminal while you're logged in but it didn't work out for me, so if you'll have the same problem, reboot into the Recovery mode, in the menubar pick Utilities -> Terminal and type just:
nvram boot-args="no32exec=0"
(without sudo).
Example
To be more exact, to install eg. Steam 32bit, you would:
Install the Unofficiall Wineskin Winery from the provided link
Turn on the 32bit execution boot argument by going into Recovery Mode and entering nvram boot-args="no32exec=0" into the terminal
Open Wineskin, click the '+' sign and scroll down to find the WS11WineCX64bit19.0.1 (the newest version with 64 and 32 bit support, at the time of writing)
Click update/install under the Wrapper Version.
Click Create New Blank Wrapper, name it and click through installation of mono and gecko.
Launch the Wrapper App from Finder. Click Install Software, choose setup executable, and proceed through installation. Then pick the executable from a menu. (In case of steam, Steam.exe)
Note: If you get the "No windows app to open the file"(Like I did) error, click advanced -> configuration and set the Windows EXE to the path to the installer. Then find the place that it has installed in and set that as Windows EXE. Then you can run by clicking Test Run.
Enjoy your windows app, as an .app file!
Hope I helped!

ghostview no longer works after homebrew upgrade of ghostscript

I recently did an update/upgrade with homebrew, and now gv no longer opens any of my .ps files. The Ghostscript error window that comes up says "Unknown device: x11 Error: PostScript interpreter failed in main window".
If I try gs --help, it doesn't list x11 under available devices, and the Default output device is "bbox". I tried uninstalling and reinstalling through homebrew. I tried to reinstall adding "--with-x11" but that throws the error "invalid option: --with-x11" - apparently that's no longer allowed. I've upgraded my command line code through the app store, and tried all of this again - nothing changed. I'm on High Sierra 10.13.3, using Homebrew 2.0.6, ghostscript 9.26_1, and gv 3.7.4.
I'm not a Mac developer so I'm not completely familiar with Homebrew, but it does sound like the package has been built wiithout X11 support. The fact that --help doesn't list the device is pretty clear.
I do notice from the website that in the last 30 days there have been 2 downloads of --with-x11. So possibly they've removed X11 support recently.
The only other thing I can suggest (assuming you are comfortable with compiling yourself) is to get the sources from www.ghostscript.com, untar the source tarball, then in a terminal window, from the 'ghostpdl' directory, execute ./autogen.sh, then when that is complete, execute 'make'.
Assuming you have autotools, gcc and the X11 development package, that should build a version of Ghostscript which includes X support. Looking at the Homebrew forumla, and assuming this has worked for you in the past, I think you should be able to build Ghostscript that way.
You might want to add --disable-cups --disable-compile-inits --disable-gtk --disablefontconfig --without-libidn to the ./autogen.sh command line to mimic the Homebrew formula. I'm not sure why they disable CUPS, but whatever.
Other than that, this isn't really a Ghostscript question as such, you would need to contact whoever handles the Homebrew Ghostscript distribution, which isn't any of the Ghostscript development team.
For those searching for a solution, I've put together a custom Homebrew tap that allows you to easily install GV (commonly called Ghostview, but really a derivative of it):
brew install johnhcc/gs-x11/gv
This will automatically install a version of Ghostscript with X11 enabled in the process (it is a dependency). You can optionally install the dependency by itself, it you want:
brew install johnhcc/gs-x11/ghostscript-x11
The main page is here:

Where can I get version 16.0.0 of libfreetype.6.dylib for ImageMagick on MAMP

When running imagemagick under MAMP I get the error message:
command output :"dyld: Library not loaded: /opt/local/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib
Referenced from: /Applications/MAMP/bin/ImageMagick/ImageMagick-6.7.9/bin/convert
Reason: Incompatible library version: convert requires version 16.0.0 or later, but libfreetype.6.dylib provides version 15.0.0"
I have searched everywhere I can think of but can't find a solution to this. One posting I saw suggested commenting out the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH in envvars but this did not make any difference.
Figured it out. I ran:
$ locate libfreetype.6.dylib
and discovered that there are multiple version of that dylib including a version in /opt/local/lib where macports installs imagemagick. I copied that version to the location in MAMP where it was installed and it solved the issue.
$ cp /opt/local/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib /Applications/MAMP/Library/lib/
Make sure you make a backup of the MAMP version before copying over it just in case something goes wrong.
I had the same issue. For me works this:
sudo port selfupdate
sudo port install ImageMagick
sudo pecl update-channels
sudo pecl install imagick
Then I run
find . -name "imagick.so"
and use the given path in MAMP php.ini.
In the end I commented out the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH lines in /Applications/MAMP/Library/bin/envvars

Can't install ruby 1.9.1 on MacOSX 10.6

I can't seem to be get Ruby installed on my Mac. These are the steps I've taken so far:
Downloaded the package from Ruby's site (http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/downloads/)
Unpacked it running { tar xzvf ruby-1.9.1-p376.tar.gz }
Went into the new ruby folder, and configured using {./configure}
This is where the error happens. When I run the configure, it gives me the error:
/usr/local/include/fuse/fuse_common.h:32:2: error: #error Please add -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 to your compile flags!
In file included from /usr/local/include/fuse/fuse.h:857,
from <command-line>:0:
/usr/local/include/fuse/fuse_compat.h:69:24: error: sys/statfs.h: No such file or directory
As a result, I can't make the package nor install it. I have no idea what is wrong. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Have you tried RVM? It lets you manage multiple versions of ruby and will take of installing them and managing any gem versions for you. It's pretty magic!
After you've installed it all you need to do is:
`rvm install 1.9`
Done!
If the last line of configure output is
config.status: creating Makefile
then you have a makefile and you can try building it.
I got the fuse.h error, and just ran make to build a working ruby:
[neilk#maczombie ~]$ ruby --version
ruby 1.9.1p376 (2009-12-07 revision 26041) [i386-darwin10.2.0]
Looks like others have run into this issue.
If you want need the binary, you could try rubyosx.
I guessing that the issue is that you have FUSE (or MacFUSE) installed in /usr/local and for whatever reason, the configure phase is doing something that's including it. If you're not trying to build ruby with some local extensions, but you want to build ruby yourself, try moving aside /usr/local (at least temporarily).
sudo mv /usr/local /usr/local.aside
(Beware, randomly messing with /usr and /usr/local directories can lead to trouble.)
What happens if you set C_Flags or CPP_Flags before doing your ./configure?
This isnt ananswer so much as a suggested alternative... use macports :-)
