Getting the following error, any idea why?

What Linux did you install Discourse on? (Unless you modified the script, I would assume Ubuntu 22)

Can you share the output of convert --version? I’m wondering if ImageMagick is properly installed.

As a side note, it’s odd you have node v16; the script installed node v18. :thinking:

Turns out the script didn’t install properly for some reason so I was manually installing node and the other deps as I ran into issues with commands :grimacing:. I think it would’ve worked if I just installed ImageMagick from apt, but I did re run the initial installer script and that fixed it.

Thanks!

Can you share what issue happened, and where the script failed?

I installed Discourse on a fresh Ubuntu 22 several times (windows 11 as well), and it works without issue.
