I just got the component working last night and I was getting the same
error until I changed a couple of the phpThumb config settings.

If you're using phpThumb in "object" mode you'll have to make these
changes in the phpthumb.class.php file.  There is a file in the
distribution called phpThumb.config.php that details all of the
options but this file is ignored when you're using object mode (which
is what the component uses).

The settings I changed were:

$config_prefer_imagemagick = false;
$config_imagemagick_use_thumbnail = false;

(I develop on a Windows machine and don't have Imagemagick installed)

$config_allow_src_above_docroot = true;  // because of how I've
organized my cake installation

You may need to tweak other settings.  Fortunately, if you dump the
contents of the $phpThumb object right after the thumbnail creation
fails, you'll find a whole slew of debugging information that should
help you to track down exactly what's going wrong on your machine.
