flyhoney Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 It depends, but usually, yes. the best way to find out is to create a php script with one line: <?php phpinfo(); ?> This will display all the interesting details about your PHP installation. If GD is installed, you will see it there. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/143944-gd-library/#findComment-755318 Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyhoney Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 On a Linux machine I believe you need to install GD and then install PHP with the '--with-gd' flag. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/143944-gd-library/#findComment-755327 Share on other sites More sharing options...
denoteone Posted February 5, 2009 Author Share Posted February 5, 2009 I am using RHEL 5 Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/143944-gd-library/#findComment-755330 Share on other sites More sharing options...
trq Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 On a Linux machine I believe you need to install GD and then install PHP with the '--with-gd' flag. Most distributions have precompiled binaries available through there package management. Its pretty rare you actually need to compile php unless you are building extensions or using a source based distro. I am using RHEL 5 yum install php5-gd Should get the job done.

trq Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Oh.. Well sorry, your going to need to search for the gd package. I don't have access to a RH machine at the moment so I can't help you much.
