Hi I have installed PHP Version 4.4.4 but although I thought this version supported GD but found no mention of it when I loaded info.php. So I got a script to give me gd info and get message "GD is not supported by your server!"

Can someone advise if this is a case of the server not suppoting it or is it a PHP thing, and if there is a way to resolve this, would someone point me in the right directions.

Thanks

In the php.ini, find the extension labeled with php_gd2 at the end and remove the semi-colon in front of it. Save the php.ini and kill any open php.exe/php-cgi.exe tasks in task manager and reload your test script. The extension should now be active.

If not, go to www.abyssunderground.co.uk click the php article and download the php package from there which already has it activated.

It is uncommented in .ini file

;extension=php_filepro.dll
extension=php_gd2.dll
;extension=php_gettext.dll

and the .dll is there but I get the message that the server does not support GD

The PHP I installed was from the php article, the download was

I can tell you it does work as its the same php install I use and it supports GD. Try downloading the php5 package instead and see if that works.
