"PHP running on your server does not support GD"

[dmurray14]

OK guys, Newbie Alert!!

I can't seem to get the upload working. Every time I try to upload a pic, I get "PHP running on your server does not support the GD image library, check with your webhost if ImageMagick is installed". I have tried to research this, and so far the answer has been to uncomment php_gd2.dll in the dynamic extensions section. I did this, and now I get "Unable to load dynamic library './php_gd2.dll' - The specified module could not be found." Well, I can't find it either. When I search for gd on my system, I get 3 exes (gdtocopypal.exe, gd2topng.exe, pngtogd2.exe) but no dlls. I was able to find bgd.dll in C:\PHP\gd\gdwin32...is this what I'm looking for? If so, how would I get it to find that?

Any other ideas?

Thanks for the help guys...

OK, well here's an update...

I downloaded the php_gd2.dll off the internet and put it where it's supposed to be. Upload works fine now, but the thumbnail pics look really weird...kind of like sepia but in green. When you click on the picture, it's fine though.

Any ideas?

Check you have GD2 set in config, not GD1, which can cause effects like that when set wrong.

Config? You mean php.ini? Where would I find this option....


Thanks!!

No I mean in config, the admin page for the site when you log in.  login/admin mode/config.

That did it, thanks!!!!

One last question...how do I adjust the default quota for users?

Thanks,

one thread, one question!  :evil:

Go to groups in admin menu and set the quota there.
