Topic: GD lib can not work in my Apache 2.2 +PHP 5.1.4

[CottonXuCN]

The php works well in my apache web server.But when I test some gd function like imageCreate(), etc, it displays error like this:
Call to undefined function ImageCreate() in D:\Apache\htdocs\phptest\gd-jpg.php.

I am sure my other simepl test php pages can work well so there is no problem to enable php through httpd.conf in apache. I also made changes to php.ini with:
extension=php_gd2.dll
extension_dir = "c:/php5/ext"
but none of them works.
I also call phpinfo() to display php info and I found the following:
Configure Command cscript /nologo configure.js "--enable-snapshot-build" "--with-gd=shared"
Server API Apache 2.2 Handler www.apachelounge.com


My env: windows 2000 + apache 2.2 + php-5.1.4.
Someone can help me for that. I've been working on it for the whole day.Thanks.

It works fine now.I replaced php-5.1.x with php-4 and replaced Apache 2.2 with Apache 2.0. Everything is fine now.

You are missing out on all of the advantages of the newest versions of PHP and Apache. I run several servers but my busiest has be tied to PHP 4.x sadly, but that is going to be changing when I build my new server (very soon).

If I were you though, I'd be a little worried as to why you are not able to update your system to the newest PHP and Apache, 99% of the others out there can, and those that cannot usually is the result of very specific scripts that are extremely hard to upgade. In my case, I have web sites that cannot easily upgrade to MySQL 5 and PHP 5.

Gosh, I cannot think that 2000 is the issue here, but most of us use an NOS like 2003 or the old reliable XP Pro. I wonder if 2000 is the issue with GD. How did you install PHP, with the MSI or simply by installing and configuring the PHP environment manully?

I would like to help you figure this out, it is sort of bothering me too.

Finally, are you running PHP as a CGI, FCGI, or SAPI?
