Title: It's suddenly gone wacko on me... O_o
Post by: funkafied on June 01, 2004, 07:18:59 AM
I don't understand... the gallery was working fine for a long time and I was able to upload over 600 pictures.. then today I try to upload new pictures and I get this error:

Critical Error

PHP running on your server does not support the GD image library, check with your webhost if ImageMagick is installed.

I had a friend set it up and she said that she didn't have to insert the path to any thumbnailing script, that it just does thumbnails automatically... so... I don't understand exactly what's going on and why it needs the path now. I figured I had ImageMagick since it was working.  ??? -is so confused-

Does anyone know how this can be fixed? Or why it happened? Thanks for any help in advance.

I guess your webhost has upgraded your server (with a newer version of php coming with gd2 instead of gd1) without notifying you.
I recommend you check what version of gd you actually have on your server (see http://coppermine.sourceforge.net/faq.php?q=VersionGD#VersionGD ) and then you check what you have in your coppermine config. Posting a link and some parts of phpinfo (refer to faq again) might help as well.

So if I can't find a table with the GD info in it in the info.php file I created, that means that it has been removed, yes?

:( Oh I hope not.

They may have forgotten to build with GD when they upgraded.  Give them a call.

The bad thing is that I bought the domain from someone on a forum and when I asked who they were hosted by, they said they were hosted on some reseller.   :-\\  I don't think even they knew. Is there any website that can find who my host is when I enter my domain or something of the sort? I'd love to figure this out with them, but I don't even know who they are. O_O

Thanks for the help.

Yes, you do a WHOIS lookup.

Note that sometimes the listed party is the registrar, not the host.  If this search gives you a registrar, you need to use that registrar's WHOIS service to determine the host. Since it was a reseller, it would likely be a megacorp such as EV1 in Houston.

if you contact the host, 9 times out of 10, they will reinstall IM for you...
