If system("convert -version") does nothing, it is probably erroring out. Mess around with exec and using 2>&1 to try to get the error message. It's going to boil down to paths and permissions. The PHP user probably doesn't have convert in $PATH. Use a FULL PATH for system/exec calls for *any* path, and within *any* script being called. Anything else is just a time bomb waiting to blow up on you.
