PHP 4.5.6 symptoms of missing GD lib but PHP -m says it's there

[andydavies]

OK this is a weird one...

I'm building another 'all in one' instance on Win7 for some testing and I have the symptoms of GD lib missing e.g. empty waterfalls.

But according to phpinfo gd is there as is zip and zlib see the output of php -m below.

This is PHP 4.5.6 which I've not used to build an instance before, any clues where I should look?

Thanks

Andy

Looking at the response I'm getting a zero byte response with a text/html mimetype but with a response code of 200

Something's obviously failing but I'm not seeing any messages in the error log

GD isn't enabled for some reason - used this test to find out http://www.dagondesign.com/articles/chec...ur-server/

On Windows I usually do a WAMP install because getting GD configured through the ini never seems to work right for me - http://www.wampserver.com/en/

Sorted...

Helps if you edit the php.ini in c:\windows rather than the one in c:\php

(checks all look ok when you run them from the command line because they're using a different ini file)

Doh...
