So after a couple of months of development today I am finaly deploying!
(WOOHOO great day).
But i am stuck with a problem I can't seem to fix:

First of all in development all is working perfectly.
In deployment on my server it isn't though!. I use attachment_fu and i
am able to upload
pictures but the pictures are not resizing.

There is nothing in the production log or in de apache error log.
I am using ImageMagick with Mini_magick, Passenger and Attachement_fu.
So I can upload (no problem) but for some reason the images don't
resize! like i told attachement fu to do.

Also i read and Google my ass and found some thing about Apache export
you need to add or something. But so far i don't know what to do at this
point!

The symptoms are those of attachment_fu not being able to run the ImageMagick "convert" command properly.

Check the following on your deployment server:
- ImageMagick working correctly from the command line (google for a command line example and use it on an image file)
- ImageMagick command line utils being in the unix PATH ("which convert" on Linux/MacOS X should give you a valid path)
- Appropriate permissions on the folders where attachment_fu does its thing



Best regards
