Fatal error: Call to undefined function: imagecreatefromjpeg()

Folks,
I feel like pulling my hair out - I tried unsuccessfully over the past few
days to install ImagMagick but because of version conflicts and missing
libraries I had to give up. I originally choose ImageMagick because I've
heard so much about it.

I then decided to go with the inbuilt GD tools since I'm using PHP 4.3.3
that I compiled with --with-gd. I can use some of the image functions in
PHP so why is this one undefined? What can I do to resolve it? The message
follows, in addition, I include an extract from my phpinfo() to show that I
do have GD Support fully enabled.

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: imagecreatefromjpeg()

An extract from phpinfo(); tells me the following:

GD Support enabled
GD Version bundled (2.0.15 compatible)
GIF Read Support enabled
PNG Support enabled
WBMP Support enabled
XBM Support enabled

What do I need to do to fix the problem?

Interestingly enough - I found imagecreatefromgif() works thus I'm wondering
if there is a dependancy on an external jpeg library that I do not have
installed.

Can anyone help with a solution?

--with-jpeg=<path to jpeg libs> may be worth a try, although my version of PHP
wasn't compiled with that and still has jpeg support; configure may have found
the libs by itself though, since they're in /usr/lib.

I've got it recompiling as I write this so I'll post again in an hour or so
and let you know if that was the root of the problem - thought I'd just
drop a byte though and say thanks for the suggestion since its the second
time this week that you've answered one of my posts...

I've called the gd_info() function and notice that jpeg support isn't
recognised

# 10 Elements strlen
GD Version bundled (2.0.15 compatible) 27
FreeType Support 0
T1Lib Support 0
GIF Read Support 1 1
GIF Create Support 0
JPG Support 0
PNG Support 1 1
WBMP Support 1 1
XBM Support 1 1
JIS-mapped Japanese Font Support 0

I *do* have jpeg-6b compiled though and was unsure as to why it hadn't
picked it up.

After three or four different compiles, I changed the order of the
../configure arguements (which probably didn't do anything) however I had
previously --with-jpeg-dir=/usr/lib I've modifed it to have --with-jpeg-dir
without a directory specified and I think that sorted it.

The following are my compile options for those who might suffer the same
problem (note though that my apache has been compiled with a number of extra
modules that you may (not?) need like mysql, suexec, perl...

# cd apache/
# make clean

# cd ../php/
# make clean

# cd ../apache/
#
../configure --prefix=/opt/apache --enable-module=unique_id --enable-module=s
o --enable-suexec --with-perl=/usr/bin/perl --suexec-caller=www --suexec-log
file=/var/log/suexec.log --suexec-uidmin=1025 --suexec-gidmin=1025 --disable
-module=imap --disable-module=asis --disable-module=userdir --disable-module
=autoindex --disable-module=status --enable-module=vhost_alias --activate-mo
dule=src/modules/php4/libphp4.a --activate-module=src/modules/extra/mod_geoi
p.c

# cd ../php/
#
../configure --with-mysql --with-apache=$src/apache --with-mcrypt --with-jpeg
-dir --enable-exif --with-zlib-dir --with-gd --disable-cgi
# make
# make install

# cd ../apache/
#
../configure --prefix=/opt/apache --enable-module=unique_id --enable-module=s
o --enable-suexec --with-perl=/usr/bin/perl --suexec-caller=www --suexec-log
file=/var/log/suexec.log --suexec-uidmin=1025 --suexec-gidmin=1025 --disable
-module=imap --disable-module=asis --disable-module=userdir --disable-module
=autoindex --disable-module=status --enable-module=vhost_alias --activate-mo
dule=src/modules/php4/libphp4.a --activate-module=src/modules/extra/mod_geoi
p.c
# make
# make install

This is what finally worked for me. Not sure whether it was the "make
clean" or adding exif support -- but it worked!

make clean
../configure --with-mysql --with-apxs2 --with-xpm-dir --with-png
--with-png-dir --with-jpeg-dir --enable-exif --with-zlib-dir --with-gd
> configure.2003.09.12.dh5.log
make
make install
libtool --finish /etc/rpms/php-4.3.1/libs
apachectl -k stop
service httpd start
