I have GD 2.0 or higher installed, yet Coppermine won't utilize it!
« on: August 22, 2007, 06:38:25 pm »
I have GD 2.0 or higher installed, yet Coppermine won't utilize it! I checked my PHP server and it says 2.0 or higher, yet with GD 2.X enabled on coppermine it doesnt work. Here is the results. Please help me ASAP!

PHP running on your server does not support GD version 2.x, please switch to GD version 1.x on the admin page

File: ..picmgmt.inc.php - Line: 257

It seems to work in Admin mode but not in user mode? Why would that be?

What do you mean? Do you mean the "admin mode" / "user mode" toggle in the menu? Don't use it if you don't know what it is meant to be used for. Never leave admin mode.
If you have issues uploading as non-admin user, do exactly as suggsted in the upload troubleshooting section of the docs (posting a link to your gallery and a non-admin test user account with upload privileges and the suggested settings in place).

The message means the function imagecreatetruecolor is not available on your server.

What can I do instead? I cannot install ImageMagick because someone else is hosting it, and GD 1 looks like crap!

You need to get your host to support GD2 fully or IM.

What if they won't do an upgrade? am I stuck with crappy uploads?

I am expecting high frequency of traffic so they probably wont be happy with 1.0

If you plan to run a popular site you should use hosting you have control over yourself.

Is there anyway to install image magick without telnet? I'm using MAC OS X without any telnetting features, just a simple ftp.

You need shell access and you need admin privileges to install ImagMagick. So the short answer is "no" - ask your webhost if they can install it for you. See http://coppermine-gallery.net/demo/cpg14x/docs/faq.htm#whatIsImageMagick
Better still: ask them to provide a real GD install: it comes with PHP by default. Just ask your webhost that they should visit this thread - they should know what to do then if they are worth the money you spend.
