Re: Compiling PHP with GD and JPEG support

Hello again,

I finally got this to work, thanks mostly to the information I found here:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7167860/compiling-php-with-gd-and-libjpeg-support

I created symlinks for the libjpeg files under /usr/lib and also ran 'make
clean' prior to 'make'.  I'm not exactly sure which one was the missing
trick, but I then compiled PHP again with '--with-jpeg-dir=/usr' and now
JPEG support works.
