Auto_rotate not working

[sergiownd]

Hei guys I'm having problems with IOS images, so I've tried to use the bundle but I cant make it run. Here is my config.yml:

liip_imagine:
    cache: resize_images
    resolvers:
        default:
            web_path: ~

        resize_images:
          web_path:
            web_root: "%kernel.root_dir%/../web"

    filter_sets:
        cache: ~

        media_converted:
            quality: 70
            filters:
                auto_rotate: ~
                scale:
                    to: 0.7

If i remove the auto_rotate it works, but I need it, any idea?
Thanks

We need a bit more detail than "I can't make it run" such as the exception or error message you are receiving, or the behavior you are expecting and not getting, or really any additional information about your setup, such as the version of Symfony and this bundle you are using. If your project is open source, you can also point to that.

Also, have you looked at the existing issues involving rotation to see if someone else already experienced and resolved your issue?

My problem is that if I dont use the auto_rotate, my image is generated. But when I use it, the img is not generated. Im using symfoy 2.8 and the las LiipImagine version.

Logs shows no error, but the image is not generated.

Im using the function in the twig like this:

A few questions:

• Are you using the latest version of the Imagine Library?
• What image transformation extension are you using?
• Having you tried a different one, such as gd, imagick, or gmagick?
• Do you have the exif extension installed?

hei @robfrawley So i have to basicly install one of the php libraries (gd, imagic or gmagick and also exif?
I have not installed any of this ones. Could u please make a list of which php libraries do i need to instal?
Thanks.

See the composer suggestions for packages you'd need for different environments: you don't need all of them, only the ones required for your usage. You likely already have gd installed. You can try using either imagick or gmagick if gd isn't working as you'd expect (I'd suggest imagick).

As far an the exif extension, it is used to read the EXIF information from supported image formats; without it you get a null-metadata reader, which would cause auto_rotate to not work properly. For auto_rotate to function properly, you need the exif extension so it can read the orientation key from the EXIF metadata of the image.

As you'll see via the composer suggestions, there are other libraries and extensions that provide additional functionality for specific use-cases, which are described there in the composer.json file.

PHP must have enabled exif to get image metadata (--enable-exif)
