I have this error in my cms:

GD is not present - image manipulation disabled

so I can't work with images the way I worked on old server, before I moved site to Linode.

I followed this instruction and installed GD library, all went well but I still get this error.

I also read that I might need to enable it in php.ini how do I that?

I have Ubuntu 9.10 Latest 2.6 (2.6.39.1) php5.

Thanks!

My Debian 6 config, hope it helps:

root:/etc/php5/conf.d# cat gd.ini
; configuration for php GD module
extension=gd.so

Thanks, but can you be more specific, what should I do with the code you posted?

I searched /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini and did not found extension=gd.so or anything that has gd in it...

EDIT: actually, I found only this:

[gd]
; Tell the jpeg decode to libjpeg warnings and try to create
; a gd image. The warning will then be displayed as notices
; disabled by default
;gd.jpeg_ignore_warning = 0

Check if you have /etc/php5/conf.d/gd.ini file with extension=gd.so

If not, you can create it or put "extension=gd.so" in your php.ini.

PD: remember to restart apache

Thats it ! I had gd.ini file, but it was not in php.ini I just added that line and now all fine

Thanks a lot!!! You saved my day!
