Installing php_imagick.dll PHP extension on wampserver 2.2

Question

I am on Windows 7 on a 32-bit OS.

I installed ImageMagick-6.8.7-Q16 from Link and I was able to run ImageMagick from command line ("convert" command).

Then I downloaded the VC9 version of php_imagick.dll from http://pecl.php.net/package/imagick/3.1.2/windows.

I placed in the PHP extension directory. I tried both NTS and TS however they recommended TS.

Then I made changes to php.ini file but the extension wouldn't load. In apache error log it says:

PHP Warning:  PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'c:/wamp/bin/php/php5.3.13/ext/php_imagick.dll' - The specified module could not be found.\r\n in Unknown on line 0
<br />
<b>Warning</b>:  PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'c:/wamp/bin/php/php5.3.13/ext/php_imagick.dll' - The specified module could not be found. 

in <b>Unknown</b> on line <b>0</b><br />

I am using wamp server 2.2 which is compiled using VC9 as well. I want to use Imagick functions in PHP scripts.

Any help with fixing this issue is highly appreciated.

I had this same problem, here is my configuration:

Windows 8.1 64Bit
PHP 5.4 (Thread Safe)
Apache 2.2

I tried to install the Latest Version of ImageMagick but its fail to load and I solved by installing the following version (6.7.7-5-Q16 32bit) and its worked fine with http://ftp.icm.edu.pl/packages/ImageMagick/binaries/ImageMagick-6.7.7-5-Q16-windows-dll.exe.

after install download imagick dll from the link (imagick 3.1.2 Thread Safe )

http://pecl.php.net/package/imagick/3.1.2/windows

after restarted apache and start working

Yes it works! Use ImageMagick same as apache/php bit. For example: Apache/PHP 64 bit, use ImageMagick 64 bit. Thanks! – vee Apr 17 '16 at 08:40

Ok, try the Q8 version php_imagick-3.1.2-5.3-ts-vc9-x86.zip

Yes, it has to be the TS (Thread Safe) version as Apache and PHP are compiled TS in the WAMPServer system.

Also the php_imagick.dll is delivered as part of the Imagick download, look in the unzipped file structure for it. Copy that to the /ext folder, not the PECL one.
