Jpeg and PNG for PHP

[Anon]

I believe I have seen every posting on this issue and no one has a reason for this problem yet. I believe this is the same problem as reported by Aliza

"/forum/read.php3?num=1&id=132870&thread=102714"

I am building on Linux Redhat 7.1

First I build GD with information about zlib/jpeg/png/freetype directories

thanks to some advise on another post, I tested the build

nm libgd.a | grep gdImageCreateFromJpeg
0000040c T gdImageCreateFromJpeg
00000438 T gdImageCreateFromJpegCtx

nm libgd.a | grep gdImageCreateFromPng

      U gdImageCreateFromPngCtx

00000030 T gdImageCreateFromPngSource
000000cc T gdImageCreateFromPng
000000f8 T gdImageCreateFromPngCtx

OK - I think that GD is functioning with the above.

So now build php

./configure --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql \
--with-pgsql=/usr/local/pgsql \
--with-apache=../apache_1.3.23 \
--with-pdflib=/usr/local/pdflib \

--with-png-dir=/usr \
--with-freetype-dir=/usr \
--with-ttf \
--with-xml \
--enable-ftp \
--with-openssl \
--with-pear

This is where I identify the problem

so for those who have not skimmed over the above, you can see that while the headers were identified, the functions gdImageCreateFromJpeg and
gdImageCreateFromPng were not found in the gd library, even though they are there and were found manually previously.

Sorry so detailed, would love to hear from anyone who knows what is happenning here !

I suppose you've done a "make clean" with GD before proceeding down this path? The fact that its getting the XPM line:
checking for the location of libXpm... no
If configure fails try --with-xpm-dir=<DIR>
checking for gdImageCreateFromXpm in -lgd... (cached) yes

makes me a little supicious... Maybe you should blow away your GD source, grab a new version of it online unzip it and give it another go if that fails?
