Re: Installing PHP With GD

I've had the same problem. Try just --with-gd and no path i.e. ./configure --with-pgsql --with-apache=/usr/src/local/apache-_1.3.12 \ --with-gd --enable-track-vars This forces PHP to do a "static" build of GD (someone who knows more about this could probably explain it better, anyone?). I believe your original syntax of --with-gd-dir=/usr/lib/ is wrong anyway and should be --with-gd=/usr/lib you'll also need the gd-devel-1.8.3-4.i386.rpm off the RH7 CD installed.
