Thumb problem

Hi!

I installed tikiwiki 1.7.4 on my linux server with Apache 2, PHP 4.x, mysql 4.

All features are working good, only thumdnails on Galleries seems not work.

How can I resolve this problem?

tnx

p.s.
english is not my natural language, sorry 😡

Hi Banjo!

Is this the same post as in the italian forum? I cant read it thats why I ask 😉

Thumbnail problems are mainly related to either GD or Imagemagick problems, maybe even support in the PHP.

I would say tho make sure your image galleries are set to use a folder rather than storing in the database too.

Let me know if its set to GD or ImageMagick, and maybe try the other setting!

Hi Damian!

Yes, it's the same post... 😡

It seems to be a GD problems, 'cuase I can't find any GD reference in PHPINFO.

There is an installation RPM for GD or I must recompile PHP?
Please 😢 I don't want (and I can't) recompile....

I save all in database, It's wrong?


Tnx.

Hi Banjo,

All I know is you need to have GD support in PHP. What OS are you using? You might another rpm with GD support.

I use Mandrake Linux.... the version, I think, maybe 9.1 or 9.2...

If you have any suggestion, I'm here!

Thnx

Hi Banjo,

I'm a RedHat Fedora Core user, so I cant help there, However IRC user jahlewis is having a image thumbnail issue and gmuslera has suggest a PHP 4.1.2 is bad for GD and suggested upgrading to v 4.3.2

Maybe mandrake has a newer version you can use with GD support available.

on Fedora it would just be a simple case of grabbing the RPM and then as root doing a rpm -U phpxxxxx.rpm

Thats about my best advice for now

Ok,

I'm using PHP 4.3.1

I tried to install gd-2.0.12-1.3.0.i386.rpm with "rpm -ivh --nodeps" (dependecies was for an old libpng), but it doesn't work...

Damn! 👻

I remember reading on php.net that it needs to have support for GD compiled in.

I know because i was looking up imagemagick bits and thats the same. I didnt bother in the end and sticking with GD support.

😑
