Comment (by joemcgill):

 Generally, when we see this error it's a misconfiguration with the Imagick
 PHP extension, so that's where I'd check first. On a broken environment,
 you can try switching to GD as the image handler to see if that, in fact,
 is the culprit.

 This filter will reprioritize GD as the default image editor used by
 WordPress:


 {{{#!php
 add_filter( 'wp_image_editors', 'change_graphic_lib' );

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