Comment (by FrankEck):

 Hi... have had the same problem and two actions solve the problem:

 1) downgrade to php 5.6 (from 7)
 2) add the 3-liner to the functions.php
 {{{#!php
 <?php
 add_filter( 'wp_image_editors', 'change_graphic_lib' );

 function change_graphic_lib($array) {
 return array( 'WP_Image_Editor_GD', 'WP_Image_Editor_Imagick' );
 }
 }}}
