Upload Problem ... believe to be with GD config, but need advice

[NotYou]

Today I was made aware of Coppermine, and so far what I've seen I've liked! However, I am having a problem running it on my web host, and specifically with Uploading pictures.

Background:
I have yet to have a successful upload of an image, and I beleive it has to do with GD (ImageMagick is not an option). At first, it reports that "1 uploads were successful", but when continuing the image preview is a red X and this message is displayed "The previous file could not be placed. You have successfully placed all the files. "

The reason I beleive it's with GD is the following:
Debug Info [snippit]:

Code Select Expand

Module: gd
------------------
module doesn't exist
==========================


PHPInfo [snippet]:

Code Select Expand

gd
GD Support enabled
GD Version between 1.3 and 1.6.1
GIF Read Support enabled
GIF Create Support enabled

These two entries seam to conflict each other!

When investigating, I noticed that on my web hosting account the PHP "Configure Command" reflects the following for GD: '--with-gd=../gd'

However, on all other PHP "Confure Commands" on other hosting accounts it says this instead: '--with-gd'

Am I on the right track, and if so is there something I can do about it to make Coppermine work for me?

THANKS!

It needs to include JPEG support. I don't see that in the part you posted.

Hmm... good point, there isn't anything in there that references JPEG support.

I tried to upload other types of files (.gif, .bmp, .png) and other errors were encountered (either not supported file type, "File Not Uploaded by POST",  or similar to above), so I'm assuming the GD support on this web host is quite limited

I tried with an .avi file this morning, and everything worked just fine.
