Title: Jpegtran Problem Last modified: August 20, 2016 --- # Jpegtran Problem * Resolved [Lewebmaster](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sqqdhotmailcom/) * (@sqqdhotmailcom) * [13 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/jpegtran-problem/) * Hi, * First of all thank you for that great plugin ! I’m having an issue with Jpegtran. Since the last update (2013-3-19), i’m getting this message : * `jpegtran: MISSING Copy executable from /homez.577/lesgoute/www/wp-content/plugins/ ewww-image-optimizer/jpegtran-linux64 to /homez.577/lesgoute/www/wp-content/ewww/ jpegtran or a system path (like /usr/local/bin), OR Download jpegtran source` * [http://www.shanebishop.net/uploads/jpegtran-linux64](http://www.shanebishop.net/uploads/jpegtran-linux64) * I’ve downloaded your _[http://www.shanebishop.net/uploads/jpegtran-linux64](http://www.shanebishop.net/uploads/jpegtran-linux64)_ and put it in the wp-content/ewww/ folder, and name it jpegtran-custom and it didn’t work. I’ve also changed the writing permission and still nothing. * Debug Info * jpegtran path: optipng path: /homez.577/lesgoute/www/wp-content/ewww/optipng gifsicle path: /homez.577/lesgoute/www/wp-content/ewww/gifsicle pngout path: disabled functions: jpegtran permissions: 0755 gifsicle permissions: 0755 optipng permissions: 0755 wp-content/ewww permissions: 0777 user: lesgoute Operating environment: Linux 3.2.2-grsec-mutu-grs-ipv6-64 #1 SMP Thu Jan 26 14:55:34 UTC 2012 x86_64 * Thank you for your help. * Kindly. * [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/ewww-image-optimizer/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/ewww-image-optimizer/) Viewing 15 replies - 1 through 15 (of 18 total) 1 [2](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/jpegtran-problem/page/2/?output_format=md) [→](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/jpegtran-problem/page/2/?output_format=md) * Plugin Author [nosilver4u](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nosilver4u/) * (@nosilver4u) * [13 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/jpegtran-problem/#post-3575340) * If you uploaded it via FTP, you need to make sure you are transferring it in binary (BIN) mode, or else the file will get corrupted.

Let me know if that works, because I’ll want to investigate what they are doing to get a ‘better’ binary than what I’m able to do (they should know, since they are the ones developing it). * Thread Starter [Lewebmaster](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sqqdhotmailcom/) * (@sqqdhotmailcom) * [13 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/jpegtran-problem/#post-3575417) * Just did but still missing… * Plugin Author [nosilver4u](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nosilver4u/) * (@nosilver4u) * [13 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/jpegtran-problem/#post-3575418) * so that points to something else in the code, you may need to revert to 1.3.8 for the time being, as I may not be able to work on the issue until next Monday. * Plugin Author [nosilver4u](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nosilver4u/) * (@nosilver4u) * [13 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/jpegtran-problem/#post-3575432) * If you could try something else for me over the next couple days, that would be helpful also: * Re-install 1.3.8 of the plugin, DON’T use the automatic jpegtran installer (if you already did, then delete jpegtran from the wp-content/ewww/ folder) Then download the 64-bit version of jpegtran from [http://www.shanebishop.net/uploads/jpegtran-linux64](http://www.shanebishop.net/uploads/jpegtran-linux64) and upload it as jpegtran-custom like you did before, and see if it works. * Thread Starter [Lewebmaster](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sqqdhotmailcom/) * (@sqqdhotmailcom) * [13 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/jpegtran-problem/#post-3575440) * Ok mate here’s what i did : I uninstalled the 1.4 version and deleted all the eww folder in my directories and reinstalled the 1.3.8 version. I had this message: [](http://oi46.tinypic.com/2myxies.jpg) * I did it automacally and it worked fine. * I reuninstalled the 1.3.8 ver for the 1.4.0 vers (also deleted all the folder) but i didn’t get this message anymore, it directly says that Jpegtran is missing. * Plugin Author [nosilver4u](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nosilver4u/) * (@nosilver4u) * [13 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/jpegtran-problem/#post-3575470) * Ok, so 1.3.8 with the automatic install worked fine, that is good, at least we have a case that works properly. * The one thing I didn’t see from your last post is this: * Can you install 1.3.8, and instead of doing the ‘automatic’ jpegtran install, download the 64-bit version of jpegtran from [http://www.shanebishop.net/uploads/jpegtran-linux64](http://www.shanebishop.net/uploads/jpegtran-linux64) and upload it as jpegtran-custom like you did before, and see if it works with 1.3.8 of the plugin? * Please show the full status and debug block in your screenshot if it does work, so I can confirm a couple things. * Thread Starter [Lewebmaster](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sqqdhotmailcom/) * (@sqqdhotmailcom) * [13 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/jpegtran-problem/#post-3575474) * Ok, I did exactly as you asked but here’s the problem : After i uploaded the jpegtran-custom file the eww folder (i used the 1.3.8 vers.), the plugin doesn’t realise it… even if i click on the save button, or refresh the settings page, i still have the same message : * ``` jpegtran: MISSING Install automatically | manually optipng: OK version: OptiPNG version 0.7.4 gifsicle: OK version: LCDF Gifsicle 1.68 Graphics libraries (only used for conversion, not optimization): GD: OK   Imagemagick 'convert': OK safe mode: Off  exec(): OK  shell_exec(): OK   Only need one of these: finfo: MISSING  getimagesize(): OK  mime_content_type(): MISSING Debug Info jpegtran path: optipng path: /homez.577/lesgoute/www/wp-content/ewww/optipng gifsicle path: /homez.577/lesgoute/www/wp-content/ewww/gifsicle pngout path: disabled functions: gifsicle permissions: 0755 optipng permissions: 0755 wp-content/ewww permissions: 0705 user: lesgoute Operating environment: Linux 3.2.37-uid-limit2-mutu-grs-ipv6-64 #1 SMP Sun Jan 27 07:40:58 CET 2013 x86_64 ``` * Plugin Author [nosilver4u](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nosilver4u/) * (@nosilver4u) * [13 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/jpegtran-problem/#post-3575477) * Ok, one last thing I need you to try.
