Hey everyone,
My host told me that they installed GD for me, but when I try to upload a pic, I still get this error message:
"PHP running on your server does not support the GD image library, check with your webhost if ImageMagick is installed"
After being uploaded, the image does not display in the gallery but it shows up as being uploaded in the directory, despite the error message.
Anyone have an idea what I can do??
Thanks!
yes, start with the faq:GD version (http://coppermine.sourceforge.net/faq.php?q=VersionGD#VersionGD) and check if you really have gd (and what version).

Well, they told me they installed 2.0 and I can see the images that I upload in the user folder on the server, but nothing shows up in the gallery. I uploaded that script like you said and then ran it...but I saw no table for GD...I assume that means it isn't installed, but how are the images being uploaded to the server? Can that happen without GD and is the fact that I can't see them in the gallery the indication that GD isn't installed? Thanks again...
GD has nothing to do with the script's ability to upload to your website. It's used to create the thumbnails and intermediate pictures.
If you ran the phpinfo script and you didn't see any GD support, then you don't have GD. If you want, we can confirm that suspicion if you post a link to your phpinfo script.
Thanks, the host got back to me and said they screwed up the installation of GD. They fixed it now. Thanks everyone!
