.This error can be due to the fact that ImageMagick is not installed on your computer, or (for Windows users) that you didn't specify the path to the ImageMagick binary in file conf.py, or.that the path you specified is incorrect

What should I do ?

pkarp0 · 2018-01-04T22:26:06Z

Check for the ImageMagick policy file. ImageMagick does not have the proper permission set:
/etc/ImageMagick-6/policy.xml

makelove · 2018-01-05T03:02:30Z

@pkarp0 How to set up ?

<policymap>
  <!-- <policy domain="resource" name="temporary-path" value="/tmp"/> -->
  <!-- <policy domain="resource" name="memory" value="2GiB"/> -->
  <!-- <policy domain="resource" name="map" value="4GiB"/> -->

  <policy domain="coder" rights="none" pattern="WIN" />
  <policy domain="coder" rights="none" pattern="PLT" />
  <policy domain="path" rights="none" pattern="@*" />
</policymap>

pkarp0 · 2018-01-05T15:47:38Z

comment out (or remove the line that reads)
<policy domain="path" rights="none" pattern="@*" />

makelove · 2018-01-06T07:29:49Z

Thank you !
it's Working.

No more error!

pilgrim2go · 2018-12-17T09:43:30Z

Thanks @pkarp0 works for me also

nerdogram · 2019-06-06T01:54:37Z

I am still getting this error even after removing the line? I am trying to run this on Google Colab. Any tips?

pkarp0 · 2019-06-06T13:41:58Z

Havent worked with Colab. Try running ImageMagick directly. It is typically installed at /usr/bin/convert

nerdogram · 2019-06-07T18:02:20Z

I figured it out it had to be installed before importing moviepy

kheniparth · 2019-07-19T02:16:09Z

@alvisanovari Could you please tell me how you resolved it?

I tried to install ImageMagick in google colab even though it comes pre-installed like below but I am still getting permission issue.

!apt install imagemagick
!pip install -r requirements.txt

error:
convert-im6.q16: not authorized @/tmp/tmpqujkrvch.txt' @ error/property.c/InterpretImageProperties/3516. convert-im6.q16: no images defined PNG32:/tmp/tmpcewtbiuc.png' @ error/convert.c/ConvertImageCommand/3258..

.This error can be due to the fact that ImageMagick is not installed on your computer, or (for Windows users) that you didn't specify the path to the ImageMagick binary in file conf.py, or that the path you specified is incorrect

nerdogram · 2019-07-19T04:28:47Z

install imagemagic: ! apt install imagemagick
update the policy (see comments above about it)
then import

kheniparth · 2019-07-21T01:23:17Z

Thank you for the reply @alvisanovari
Just for anyone else who also need it for Google Colab or the local machine. I have uploaded the policy file here : policy.xml

So just use wget command to get the file and put it at /etc/ImageMagick-6/policy.xml location

rikhuijzer · 2020-05-02T18:50:21Z

The following code allows me to work with text via MoviePy from a fresh Google Colab instance.

!apt update &> /dev/null
!apt install imagemagick &> /dev/null
!apt install ffmpeg &> /dev/null
!pip3 install moviepy[optional] &> /dev/null
!sed -i '/<policy domain="path" rights="none" pattern="@\*"/d' /etc/ImageMagick-6/policy.xml

Here sed is used to remove the line from the policy.xml file.

flegascoin · 2020-05-08T18:56:10Z

Thanks @pkarp0 you made my day too :-)

Jonathan1045 · 2020-12-07T08:05:42Z

It was more useful than the answer of other website

alexandernovateva · 2020-12-29T13:30:05Z

Thank you so much @rikhuijzer that worked perfectly on my container 👍

Saafke · 2021-08-24T14:05:38Z

Check for the ImageMagick policy file. ImageMagick does not have the proper permission set:
/etc/ImageMagick-6/policy.xml

For what it's worth. When I did
cd /etc
ls
I could not find the ImageMagick-6 folder.

I had to do
cd /etc/ImageMagick-6
ls

Thanks for your help :)
