GD with PHP5
Hi experts,
Have you ever installed and used GD with PHP5. If yes please guide me how I can use GD with PHP on windows 2000/XP plateform using Apache as Server.
I have tried this:
Set extension dir to c:\php in php.ini file
Put php_gd2.dll in c:\php dir. I get this dll from my old installation of php4.3
uncomment the line "extension=php_gd2.dll "
Restart Apache
Reload php file and I get this error
"PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'c:\php\php_gd2.dll' -
The specified module could not be found."
Thanks,
Waqas

The dlls of php4 and php5 are not compatible. Download the zip of php5 and grab the php_gd2.dll from there
The GD that is bundled with PHP5 needs some dlls. When installing PHP5 and using
some of the included extensions (like GD) copy all of the *.dll-files from the /php/-dir
to c:\windows\system32\ to ensure they are found.

This is the problem as you both says GD is bundled with PHP5 but the fact is that it is not bundled or I am not getting it. No variables are set for GD when I check php configuration using phpinfo().
I could not find php_gd2.dll in any dir on hard disk.

Download this package:
http://www.php.net/get/php-5.0.2-Win32.zip/from/a/mirror
It definetly contains the required dlls.

ok i got the dll but i still have this error. It pops up (in alert box)three times whenever a php script is executed.
"PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'c:\php\php_gd2.dll' -
The specified module could not be found."
I had copied this file to c:\php, c:\winnt, c:\winnt\system and c:\winnt\system32. Nothing is working in favour of me.

Try http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/source/filemon.shtml
which shows which files are search and if they are found.
