Re: [cobalt-users] [RAQ4] PHP Error - Urgent please!

[Marco Baurdoux <linux@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi K.R

GD is the graphics C library written by Tom Boutell (
http://www.boutell.com/gd/ ), used to create images.
Before version 1.6 it could only create GIF images, but because of the
copyright that has been deposed by the company whom invented the GIF
algorithm, Tom had to change the kind of files his library could use.
So from version 1.7 up to the recent versions ( 1.8 is stable, 2.0 is beta )
the gd supports JPEG, PNG and WBMP.

Now your error comes up because you:

1. haven't compiled PHP to support any version of the GD
2. haven't got a version beyond 1.6 and thus do not have jpeg support.

How do you solve it ????
You have two solutions :

1. Recompile PHP and use this as minimum configure string
    ./configure --with-gd

2. Consider if you really have the knowledge to administer a Linux box, even
if the cobalt's are easy to use, you still need some basic Linux skills.
