[SOLVED] GD extension Installation

[ratcateme]

Hi i am running PHP 5.2.3 on Ubuntu Server 7.10 now it does not come with the GD Library installed.

Now i downloaded and extracted the files onto the server i am just no sure how i am meant to install them

i cant find any .so files and the readme says run config but that gets an error stright away

 

Can you please help

 

Thanks Scott.

you can install GD using the ubuntu repositories..

 

 sudo apt-get install php5-gd 

 

if you want to view other php5 modules

 

 sudo aptitude search php5
