Win 2k3 Server, Imagemagick, IIS 6.0
I have EE installed and semi working at this point. To the best of my knowledge I followed the fresh install instructions.

I get to the resize methods part and that is where bizarre things happen. Instead of just loading the page it loads it repeatedly multiple times and when it finally stops it doesn't load correctly (only half of the methods display and usually the last one displays code). This has happened on one other page once (I can't remember which one). After a lot of tries later, I finally got them all to display. made the correct changes for 3 different sizes and the thumbs and microthumbs. I then finished up the install and setup instructions.

So now I am uploading pics. when I upload them everything works, but instead of displaying the thumbs in the gallery I get the full sized image!!! when I check my directories for all the different sizes they all appear to be the same.....

To recap I have 2/3 problems:

resize method page loads and loads and loads (misc settings does the same)
set order in exhibition (loads once then reloads to a blank template)
images display full size when looking at the galleries. (should be thumbs)

Maybe you have a PHP accelerator in system and it goes crazy? There is nothing html-different in those pages related to other pages in EE.

images display full size when looking at the galleries. (should be thumbs)

1. Check that ftp server works (all tests).
1B. Check that paths are assigned to correct ftp server. Make sure that ftp path is correct (use normal ftp program to browse there, see that it is accessible by www, too)

2. Check that resize methods work.
2B. Check that paths are assigned correct resizemethods.

3. Check that exhibitions have correct thumb and microthumb path settings.

4. Check that EE's folder permissions are correct.

I found this error. The pictures are making their way to all the folders, but imagemagick is not working. all the tests work just fine. I am not in safemode(according to the phpinfo page). Images were not empty, IM is in the same place it always has been, permissions to the upload folder are good, as the images are being uploaded there, just not being resized



IMAGEMAGICK ERROR:

POSSIBLE REASONS:
SAFE MODE ON? EE can not use ImageMagick when is it located outside PHP safe mode exec dir.
IMAGE IS EMPTY? Perhaps source image was zero size.
IMAGEMAGICK PATH CHANGED? Maybe your server admin has moved IM to another location.
FOLDER PERMISSIONS WRONG? check that UPLOAD folder and all folders inside it are chmod 0777 (full permissions)



--------EDIT-------------
ok, fixed the thumbnail error, needed to change the profile to * not "*"

still having bizarre freakyness with the loading pages
