Re: debuging for my ansel problem

Hi Michael,

thanks for reply. Yesterday evening, I found the same point of the  
problem. GD don't work for that, not clear why. After installing the  
convert problem all the errors and problems had gone away.

Maybe it an idea to do an error checking in the code like that:

Checking image exist in the vfs and log in the logfile or so. I can't  
do any coding of php so can only give my opinion.

Thanks again for the great work.

Helmut
