GD library with PHP

[reuben]

I am hoping someone can offer advice as I have a website running on my server that needs the GD library that runs with PHP. But I have found out that the server does not have GD library and I am hoping someone can tell me how I install this as I believed it should have already been in the SW bundle!

I have a dating site but it runs a dynamic number system for user to email each other, but just now the dynamic numbers are not being produced because the server does not have GD library.

Can this be installed remotely and through direct admin?

Thanks.

Hello,

It should be included with the install... what does phpinfo(); say?

just create an info.php file with

<? phpinfo(); ?>

in it and view that file.. scroll down to see if gd is installed. You can always try to recompile gd/php by running:

cd /usr/local/directadmin/customapache
./build clean
./build gd
./build php

(make sure that gd is in the configure.php file)
