Please help me with GD library install


Recommended Posts

I'm using PHP 5.1.6 on Ubuntu 6.10 server.  I have Drupal installed, but the status log of Drupal says that GD library is not installed.  I have no reason to disagree.  So what do I do to get it installed?  Be aware that I'm a newbie and easily confused.  I'd really like to avoid a recompile, if for no other reason than I've never done that procedure before and I don't want to screw up my server's installation.  But if I must, so be it. I would appreciate a ton of help though.

recompiling will certainly allow you to have it loaded automatically, but if you'd like to give a shot at loading it dynamically, lookup the dl() function:

keep in mind the notes they make, particularly about version differences and whether or not your server is multithreaded.  hope this helps.
