coldfusion imageNew error: Unsupported Image Type

I am trying to use the ImageNew function (coldfusion 8) to create an image object with a image URL link, e.g. <cfset myImage=ImageNew(evaluate( "http://.../../1.jpg" ))>

There are many links there and most of them are good, but for some of the image links, I got an error when I call the ImageNew function: An exception occurred while trying to read the image. javax.imageio.IIOException: Unsupported Image Type

Does it have something to do with the size of images? Does anybody have any idea?

Many thanks

Results: Finally, it's the CMYK/RGB issue. It seems CF开发者_StackOverflow中文版8 has trouble in dealing with CMYK and CF8 doesn't support convertion from CMYK to RGB. I use ImageMagic to do the convertion.

To be fair, I have this issue sometimes. I don't think it has anything to do with your code, coldfusion's image processing utilities either cannot process a perfectly valid image, or they choke on an image that is not up to standards. When this happens it is typically a client uploading an image and my system throws an error. They send me the file, I resave it out using photoshop or something like that, and poof, coldfusion likes it.

The only solution I know if this is the problem, is to use a third party image processor instread of coldfusion's built in functions. I used to use cfx_imagecr

But that is not the only solution out there.
