jpg convert causes ever-growing convert file & evntual crash
Posted: 2008-08-21T14:00:45-07:00
This is quite a doozy of a bug.
I'm running version 6.2.8 Q16 and running the following command:
/usr/bin/convert -strip -colorspace RGB -scale 2048x2048 "/tmp/bknew.jpg" "/tmp/new.convert.jpg"
I've run this type of command on jpgs thousands of times without errors. But when I atttempt to convert this particular jpg, the convert file created just continues to grow and grow, the process never ends, and, unless I manually kill the process, I eventually run out of hard drive space, crashing my server.
Is this a known issue with this version of image magick? Will upgrading fix this bug?
If you would like the jpg in question that causes this, let me know where I can send it. (its ~12MB in size. note that I can convert other large files successfully)
