Very odd GD2 problem

[Adamn]

I just upgraded to windows XP from Vista (fresh reformat) and I'm having a very strange problem with getting the gd2 library to work.

 

http://localhost/phpinfo.php

 

yields

 

PHP Version 4.3.10

..

..

gd

GD Support enabled

GD Version bundled (2.0.28 compatible)

FreeType Support enabled

FreeType Linkage with freetype

GIF Read Support enabled

GIF Create Support enabled

JPG Support enabled

PNG Support enabled

WBMP Support enabled

XBM Support enabled

..

 

 

This would be all well and good, except a very simple test script will produce an error:

 

The image “http://localhost/square.png” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.

 

square.png:

<?php

$im = imagecreatetruecolor(100, 100);

// sets background to red
$red = imagecolorallocate($im, 255, 0, 0);
imagefill($im, 0, 0, $red);

header('Content-type: image/png');
imagepng($im);
imagedestroy($im);
?> 

 

For the life of me, this is the simplest thing I could do with the gd library, and it won't work.  I'm stumped.

Try renaming the file "square.php"

Comment out the header line and run the file. Look for errors before the image code/hash is outputted. Let me know what the error is
