Confirm the images folder contains a font folder with the fonts the captcha needs to display;
                     -\your_web_root_cpg15x\images\fonts

Run versioncheck.php.
It can also be checked by directly requesting cpg to produce the captcha image;

Fonts seemed to be Good -- Non the less I took the image file from a working cpg that I have and uploaded and replaced the whole folder.

Working version on PHP 5.3 Not working on 5.6  (Different servers) Changed 5.6 to 5.3 and no difference.

A path to the image might be bad somewhere but I don't have a clue of where to look for that/

A setting somewhere?

Ok I found the Problem but I would certainly LOVE to know WHY.

A while back I modified some text in the lang -english.php file

How does this remove the Captcha?

Remove modified english.php replaced with untouched english.php -- modified english.php again and is now working again?

Maybe you made some mistakes like removing  ' from something like this $lang_common['confirm'] = 'Confirmation'; // cpg1.5

I know is save and OK to change, but only the words.
Ex:

Code Select Expand

$lang_common['confirm'] = 'Confirmation'; // cpg1.5

to:

Code Select Expand

$lang_common['confirm'] = 'Confirm the code'; // cpg1.5

You can try it again and see if you have the same issue.

I changed everything in english.php for captcha and it works fine.

Also pay attenttion to text with ' like didn't. Has to be didn\'t because the text is inside ' '
Like this one: $lang_errors['captcha_error'] = 'The confirmation code didn\'t match'; // cpg1.5.

This usually happens if you (accidentally) add white spaces before the opening or after the closing PHP tag. Feel free to search our boards for that issue, there already exist some threads with exactly that issue.
