installing gd2 onto php.

[stevesweetland]

i dont have the first clue how to do it. not even in the slightest, but i need to do it. can you tell me how?

would be really handy if the reply wasnt rtfm cause iv tried that, but i dont know what im looking for!!!!!

i have a raq4, i cant upgrade to os2 and use the pkg updates because there is a single update i need to do before i can os2 update > which i cant find any-fecking-where at all. its beginning to get on my tits, so all i want is to install a new version of php. all i want is to be able to resize images on the fly (and have them look half-decent)!!!

where do i find it, how do i configure it, do i compile it, what source do i use, what dependencies does it have...

im currently on php 4.1.2...

please help, its not only getting on my tits, its actually fully mounted my mammaries.

not familiar w/ raq too much, but in your php.ini there are extensions that are commented out;

I changed
;extension=php_gd2.dll
to
extension=php_gd2.dll

and gd worked.

worth a shot at least. gl.

of course the extensions were present already in my case...

Can you compile/install your own version of PHP? If so, just compile a recent version. GD2 is bundled.
