 * Hi
 * I’m building a site using MAMP PRO and have installed Ghostscript and ImagMagick
   but when trying to Activate the plugin I get this message:
 * Please install “GhostScript” before activate the plugin!
 * Further investigation I also get this: Array ( ) / $ver: 127 / gs version:
 * I know this may be a MAMP PRO related query but I cannot find a solution anywhere?!
 * Any advice would be most welcome as this plugin looks great.
 * Thanks

 * If your new site on the strictly same server, this result might be a bit strange.(
   But I have no clue.)
 * If you just mean that you are using the same provider, there is a possibility
   that the Imagick has a problem in the relationship with GhostScript.
 * If your provider support GS, it might be better to ask them for help.
 * Anyway I’m sorry that I couldn’t be of more help. If I find something i missed,
   I will post it.
 * Thank you, I appreciate your feedback.

 * Hi! I’m trying to install into a local Windows machine running XAMPP and do get
   the very same error:
    “Please install “GhostScript” before activate the plugin!”
 * No further information.
 * I have previously installed GhostScript and Image Magick.
 * What am I doing wrong?

 * I am having the same issue.
 * I know I have ImageMagick installed because I used it recently on a Rails project,
   and I even tried reinstalling it both with OSX installer and the Brew… but it’s
   still giving me the following error.
 * “Please install “ImageMagick” and “GhostScript” before activate!”
 * Anyone find a solution for this yet? Thanks!

 * Maybe your apache can’t access ghostscript.
