Issue Summary

When using PHP 7.4.1 for the site and using a WP-CLI command in the site shell, imagick dynamic library can not be loaded on Windows 10. The file itself is not missing.

Troubleshooting Questions

  • Happens on all my local sites
  • The website itself is working from a browser

Replication

  • Use Local on Windows 10 (run as administrator)
  • Use PHP 7.4.1 for a local site.
  • Open Site shell from right-click menu.
  • Type any WP-CLI command, for instance:

wp cli version

$ wp cli version

Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library ‘php_imagick.dll’ (tried: C:/Users/ruud/AppData/Roaming/Local/lightning-services/php-7.4.1+13/bin/win64/ext\php_imagick.dll (The specified module could not be found.), C:/Users/ruud/AppData/Roaming/Local/lightning-services/php-7.4.1+13/bin/win64/ext\php_php_imagick.dll.dll (The specified module could not be found.)) in Unknown on line 0
WP-CLI 2.5.0-alpha

I also added a copy of the php_imagick.dll with the name ‘php_php_imagick.dll.dll’ to see if that would somehow fix it, but that did not help.

System Details

  • Local version 5.9.2

  • Windows 10 Professional

  • I looked through the Local log, did not see anything related.

Hope someone can help to get this fixed.

Thanks!
Ruud

Same issue here. Currently on Local version 5.9.8+5191

Looks like the issue has been around for a while.

Anyone manage to fix it?

I was able to solve the php problem adding “extension=php_imagick.dll” to “~\Local Sites\wp\conf\php\php.ini.hbs”.
