I'm trying to add the captcha to the login form.
My environment:
- Yii 2
- php 5.4.45 TS
- IIS 10.0
- Windows 10
In login.php
, LoginForm.php
and SiteController.php
I added the following (shown only the relevant parts):
backend\views\site\login.php:
use yii\captcha\Captcha;
...
<?= $form->field($model, 'captcha')->widget(Captcha::className()) ?>
...
common\models\LoginForm.php:
...
public $captcha;
...
public function rules()
{
return [
...
[['username', 'password', 'captcha'], 'required'],
['captcha', 'captcha'],
];
}
backend\controllers\SiteController.php:
public function actions()
{
return [
...
'captcha' => [
'class' => 'yii\captcha\CaptchaAction',
// 'fixedVerifyCode' => YII_ENV_TEST ? 'testme' : null,
],
];
}
I have downloaded and installed ImageMagick-7.0.2-Q16
As described here I have downloaded php_imagick-3.4.1-5.4-ts-vc9-x86.zip and extract php_imagick.dll from there. Then added php_imagick.dll in /php/ext/
In php.ini
I added the following:
...
[PHP_IMAGICK]
extension=php_imagick.dll
...
Then restart IIS, but captcha is not displayed and I see the following in the logs:
2016-08-10 07:28:21 [127.0.0.1][-][h1a65krn8scqc9auk56flmesi6][error][yii\base\InvalidConfigException] exception 'yii\base\InvalidConfigException' with message 'Either GD PHP extension with FreeType support or ImageMagick PHP extension with PNG support is required.' in C:\projects\aisnew\vendor\yiisoft\yii2\captcha\Captcha.php:180
After restarting the operating system:
2016-08-10 07:01:22 [127.0.0.1][-][h1a65krn8scqc9auk56flmesi6][error][yii\base\ErrorException:32] exception 'yii\base\ErrorException' with message 'PHP Startup: ' in Unknown:0
I read somewhere that the most recent version is working on Windows 10 but need to install the Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable Package. I checked that this package is installed.
How to add captcha in Yii-2 application? I tried different combinations of the ImageMagick and php_imagick.dll, but nothing is working.
I would be very grateful for the information. Thanks to all.
