This is another issue I noticed after migrating to the new server:

Mail::Sendmail

Your server does not have Mail::Sendmail installed, or Mail::Sendmail requires another module that is not installed. This module is required for sending mail via SMTP Server. Please consult the installation instructions for help in installing Mail::Sendmail.

I renamed the mt-config.cgi file and ran the installation wizard (mt-wizard.cgi) again. The wizard successfully sent a test e-mail, so it must have found Sendmail, but the mt-check.cgi page does not reflect that.

I would love to see what ImageMagick can do for Movable Type. My server says it has ImageMagick installed:

#yum list installed | grep "Image"
ImageMagick.i386                         6.3.5.9-1.1eapps       installed

The usual suspects are in /usr/bin, e.g. convert and mogrify.

Unfortunately, the mt-check.cgi page says otherwise:

Image::Magick

Your server does not have Image::Magick installed, or Image::Magick requires another module that is not installed. This module is needed if you would like to be able to create thumbnails of uploaded images. Please consult the installation instructions for help in installing Image::Magick.

I have no idea why Movable Type isn't finding it or how to give it proper directions.
