Re: CGI::upload and Image::Magick

$fh is a filehandle and that is what Read requires. Not a reference to it.

Try

$thumb->Read( file => $fh ) or die "No read to Image::Magick obj:  $! 
+\n";

right, $fh is already a filehandle. in fact, that wasn't the problem. Image::Magick::Read has no return value, so any code like: `$th->Read( file => $fh ) or die ....` will fail, because the LHS will never get set to 1. this stumped me for a couple days, until i started thinking about why $! wasn't set. that was the clue as to why things didn't work.

well, i'd already tried that as well, but tried it again. it doesn't work ... from the error-log: `Creating /webcontent/server_home/rentsavers/images/4/map.jpg opening --> map.jpg [Mon Aug 18 10:48:39 2003] [error] No read to Image::Magick obj *:` [download] need to go back through Image::Magick docs to see why `$!` isn't being set.
