Hi,

Have you managed with this error ? I faced with the same issue. But can’t find solution.

Ok, I found solution.

In my case apache couldn’t access the ghostscript path. It’s located in /usr/local/bin/gs and it should be symlinked to /usr/bin/gs by running this command:

ln -s /usr/local/bin/gs /usr/bin/gs.
