title: Installing ImageMagick on WAMP (Win7) : Class not found
body: <p>I've tried just about everything I've been able to find and so far nothing seems to work.</p>
  
  <p>Regardless of what I install, php always returns "Fatal error: Class 'Imagick' not found."</p>
  
  <p>My system is:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Win7, 64bit</li>
  <li>Apache 2.2.21</li>
  <li>PHP 5.3.10
  <ul>
  <li>PHP Extension Build: API20090626,TS,VC9</li>
  </ul></li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>I've installed various versions of ImageMagick (6.6.7, 6.7.1, and 6.8.5, both x86 and x64), and used dll's (VC6 and VC9) from <a href="http://chernoivan.ru/tools/imagemagick-dlls.html" rel="nofollow">http://chernoivan.ru/tools/imagemagick-dlls.html</a>, <a href="http://www.sk89q.com/2010/03/vc6-windows-binaries-for-imagick-2-3-0/" rel="nofollow">http://www.sk89q.com/2010/03/vc6-windows-binaries-for-imagick-2-3-0/</a>, and <a href="http://valokuva.org/?m=201211" rel="nofollow">http://valokuva.org/?m=201211</a>.</p>
  
  <p>WAMP shows the extension as being activated (I added <code>extension=php_imagick.dll</code> to my php.ini file)</p>
  
  <p>phpinfo() though never shows anything specific to imagick besides some path variables and the script itself:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;?php
  
  header('Content-type: image/jpeg');
  
  $image = new Imagick('image.jpg');
  
  // If 0 is provided as a width or height parameter,
  // aspect ratio is maintained
  $image-&gt;thumbnailImage(100, 0);
  
  echo $image;
  
  ?&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>always says class not found.</p>
  
  <p>What could the problem at this point be?</p>
