Wrong JPEG library version on Windows

Post by Wada »

Hello,

I am getting the following error using the Windows binary release ImageMagick-6.7.0-0-Q16-windows-dll.exe: "Wrong JPEG library version: library is 62, caller expects 70". I am using Windows XP. The error is shown on the ImageMagick display when trying to load a JPEG image.

Going back to older versions, I have found that ImageMagick-6.5.6-3-Q16-windows-dll.exe is the last version that does not display this error. ImageMagick-6.5.6-4-Q16-windows-dll.exe and later show this error and cannot be used for -coalesce and -resize in a Windows program.

Thanks
Walter

Its possible ImageMagick is picking up a different version of JPEG that is installed on your system. You could try the static release of the ImageMagick Windows binaries to see if that helps. On our two systems, ImageMagick 6.7.2-1 installs and reads / writes JPEG images without complaint.

Thank you for your prompt answer. I have downloaded and installed the static release ImageMagick-6.7.2-1-Q16-windows-static.exe.

This program works fine. However, In the setup program it shows "Welcome to the ImageMagick 6.7.2 Q8 Setup Wizard. Under "All Programs" it shows 6.7.2 Q8 instead of 6.7.2 Q16. Under "Add or remove programs" it shows ImageMagick 6.7.2-0 Q8 (2011-09-15). Is this really the Q16 release or is it the Q8 release?
