Configure image processing on ColdFusion

If you are using ColdFusion as server model for your pages, the following image libraries are used to implement the image manipulation functions:

You must download and install each library as instructed in the particular documentation.

 

For the ImageMagick library to work, you must grant access to the user running the web and application server to execute it. For this follow the next steps (for Windows servers only):

  1. Open the <windows_root>\System32\ folder. Right-click on the cmd32.exe file and select Properties.

  2. On the Security tab select the user as which the web server runs (SYSTEM - if using Apache, or IUSR_[MACHINE_NAME] for IIS, etc) and check the Read and Execute options on the Allow column.

  3. Click the OK button to apply the changes.
