GD not found after upgrade from 1.4.8 -> 1.4.10

Hi,
Upgraded today from 1.4.8 to 1.4.10.
Upgrade seemed to have gone well, i even fixed at last directory permissions the verifier was issuing warnings about (un-needed write permissions on some directories).

Anyway, i batch-added an album and for some reason it started complaining about "PHP running on your server does not support the GD image library, check with your webhost if ImageMagick is installed"

Config shows it's set to GD2, same as before but it wasn't working.
luckily my host also supports ImageMagick so it's not a big issue for me but i still thought it was worth a notice.
(BTW: it was working GD2 before for sure since you can see the difference in image jpeg quality between the 2 using the same JPEG compression ratio)

Did you verify GD2 was actually available on your server?  Did you use a phpinfo file to check and/or did you ask your host?

Code Select Expand


<?php
phpinfo();
?>

Actually, no i didn't check until now, and i don't see any reference to GD so i'm guessing it means it's not there...
but that still doesn't explain how it worked until now with the exact same settings...

unless it has some fallback in case GD wasn't found? (and it lost that feature in the latest build?  )

There isn't (was not) any fallback feature for it,
If you don't have GD installed use ImageMagic

- This is not related to upgrade at all , moving...

Perhaps your host recompiled PHP and forgot to include GD2 support, while you were upgrading Coppermine.  Ask your host for assistance.

spoke to my host, they say they didn't change anything and it's always been disabled (and that it's up to me if i enable or not, but default is disable)
no idea how it worked, but i guess it doesn't really matter, especially since i can't reproduce it.

With 1.4.8 all work fine
With 1.4.10 there is the GD problem and its impossible to upload pictures

Did you read this entire thread, and check your phpinfo?  If you don't have GD or ImageMagick, Coppermine won't work.

Did you read my post?

With 1.4.8 all work fine (with or without GD or ImageMagick)
Me anda my host dont do anything but the upgrade for 1.4.10 anda now there is the problem of GD
Why with 1.4.8 theres no problem and with the 1.4.10 the problem exist and the setings on php are the same?
