SOLVED PECL ImageMagick install fails

[monkey64]

I'm having trouble installing Imagick through PECL (Home->Software->Module Installers). BTW - I'm on AlmaLinux 8.4, WHM v 98.06.
Here is the error:

Last metadata expiration check: 3:19:02 ago on Fri Aug 27 15:48:54 2021.
Error:

[ERROR] Failed to ensure ImageMagick-devel RPM for imagick PECL

It seems that the the Imagick server component was already installed:

yum install ImageMagick

Package ImageMagick-6.9.10.86-1.el8.x86_64 is already installed.
Dependencies resolved.
Nothing to do.
Complete!

I searched around and this post mentions installing the PowerTools repo

yum config-manager --set-enabled PowerTools
dnf config-manager --set-enabled PowerTools

However when I tried either of these commands I got this error:

Error: No matching repo to modify: PowerTools.

Can anyone help?

Hey there! What version of PHP do you have setup as the default version on the server? I know there are some upstream issues with PHP 8 and this specific pecl at this time.

Hi CPRex. My default PHP version is 7.4

 

[cPRex]

Thanks for that information. Are you able to run "yum install ImageMagick-devel" on the system?

Running "yum install ImageMagick-devel" gives me a similar error unfortunately:

yum install ImageMagick-devel

Alright......last thought, what about this command:

dnf -y install ImageMagick-devel

Is that also not working?

I still get the same error.

It sounds like there is something missing in the operating system that is keeping those packages from being downloaded. It might be best to submit a ticket to our team so we can see if there is a larger problem happening rather than just an isolated issue with your system.

If you are able to submit a ticket, please post the number here so I can follow along and make sure this thread stays updated.

The ticket is #94357385. Thanks for your help.

 

[cPRex]

Thanks for that - I'm following along now on my end.

 

[cPRex]

Update - it looks like we were able to help get that powertools repository enabled, and then things installed normally, so this is a requirement to get this working.

@cPRex I have the EXACT same issue and I am also on AlmaLinux 8.4. Tried all the commands on this thread and they all give me the EXACT same errors as the OP.

Care to share the solution perhaps?

@BlueSteam - the previous user had the powertools repo disabled. You can check that value inside /etc/yum.repos.d/almalinux-powertools.repo to see if that repository is enabled for disabled, and if that is the same problem, enabling it should also resolve your issue.

 

[BlueSteam]

Thanks cPRex,

Checking the file shows that it is definitely disabled. Enabling this has sorted the problem out Thanks cPRex!!

With AlmaLinux being so new on the block for cPanel, maybe this cPanel doc (How to Install ImageMagick for EA-PHP and ALT-PHP) can be updated to include this as a step to get it working:

This was the output of the almalinux-powertools.repo

That's a good idea! I've submitted a request for the author to get that updated.

This is exactly what the technician did to install Imagick through PECL (I'm quoting from the ticket):

Thank you for your patience while I reviewed this further.
Your server did not have the "powertools" repository enabled which provides these packages:

08:59:57 li622-215 root@1234556~]cPs# cat /etc/yum.repos.d/almalinux-powertools.repo
# almalinux-powertools.repo

[powertools]
name=AlmaLinux $releasever - PowerTools
mirrorlist=https://mirrors.almalinux.org/mirrorlist/$releasever/powertools
# baseurl=https://repo.almalinux.org/almalinux/$releasever/PowerTools/$basearch/os/
enabled=0
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-AlmaLinux

As you can see, this repository is disabled due to:

enabled=0

On AlmaLinux, the "PowerTools" repository is simply named "powertools"; please note the change to all lowercase. The repository can therefore be enabled via:

yum config-manager --set-enabled powertools

I have enabled this repository for you at this time.
Following this, I was able to perform the installation of the ImageMagick-devel package required for the IMagick extension:
