RE: Apache latest + PHP latest + GD latest + Freetype latest + Jpeg latest

I've posted this email one week ago. I think it may help you a little with some new ideas. Don't forget the other good advices like 'make clean' in gd, php and apache and.. so on..directories and removing config.cache from php directory before making a new recompilation. Hope it helps! =============old message, about jpeg support installation You need the jpeg support. Shortly, do this: (I will use my version names, so you can easyly find something, if you find newer ones, it's your bussiness) 1. search the internet for: jpegsrc.v6b.tar.gz gd-1.8.3.tar.gz apache_1.3.14.tar.gz php-4.0.4.tar.gz 2. unzip all files in a tmp directory (let's say /tmp ): tar zxvf jpegsrc.v6b.tar.gz the same for gd, php, apache... 3. modify the 'Makefile' of the jpeg kit, to meet your requirements (only the paths to be correct, as your are) then issue: ./configure --enable-shared --enable-static then make make install 4. modify the gd Makefile: put there the your paths and uncomment the 'CFLAGS' line that enables the jpeg support (something like CFLAGS -DHAVE jpeg) then issue: make make install 5. now configure php and apache and compile them. it should work. it took me alot these days to discover all of this..
