Re: Problem installing GD on windows

Hi Girish, I installed PHP within D:\PHP. This folder currently has two sub-directories 'sessiondata' and 'uploadtemp'. There does not appear to be an extensions sub-directory "with a load of other dlls in there too". Anyway I created an 'extensions' sub-directory and placed the php_gd.dll into it. I changed the php.ini extension_dir line to point to this directory: ie: extension_dir = D:\PHP\extensions\ But the problem still occurs, only now the second alert box reads: "Unable to load dynamic library 'D:\PHP\extensions\php_gd.dll' - The specified procedure could not be found" Any ideas?
