No PHP GD module

[Corrado]

I was trying to install Zabbix but am having trouble finding all the
dependencies.

I have installed PHP 4.3.2, Apache 1.3.12, MySQL.

I can't find the PHP GD module that supports PHP 4.3.2 on Red Hat
Enterprise 3.

When I try install a older version, it says I need to
downgrade my PHP version. I rather not do this.

Can you provide any help or suggestions? I am no very good at understanding modules and such. I have looked for this thing and can't find it anywhere. If you have a link please show me.

A few have read this post but I've gotten no replies. Is there something I'm missing here?

Are modules normally found easily?

Did you ask Red Hat?

With Red Hat you got support for your Linux. I can't belive that they ship a Red Hat version without PHP-GD. But I would first look at the Red Hat homepage. Maybe write a mail. Or getting help at www.php.net. My Fedora Core 3 came with php-4.3.9-3 and php-gd-4.3.9-3. This works fine.

There was no php-gd on any of the Enterprise Workstation CD's. I think support for my copy has expired.

fedora core 3 and php-gd

With Red Hat you got support for your Linux. I can't belive that they ship a Red Hat version without PHP-GD. But I would first look at the Red Hat homepage. Maybe write a mail. Or getting help at www.php.net. My Fedora Core 3 came with php-4.3.9-3 and php-gd-4.3.9-3. This works fine.

I'm also running fedora core 3. I'm missing php-gd. May I ask how did you install it?

I'm having some serious dependency problems-

# rpm -i php-gd-4.3.10-3mdk.i586.rpm
warning: php-gd-4.3.10-3mdk.i586.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 85c54c72

OK fine, I need php432..

Begin installing some of these dependencies, which themselves have further dependencies which I'm missing.

Redhat compiles GD support into PHP itself and not as a seperate module it seems.. however... it does not seem to fully work with ZABBIX.....

Upgrading to php-4.3.10

So, I decided I would upgrade to PHP 4.3.10. I thought this would be easy.

When I attempted to install php-4.3.10 it failed because it needed over 5 libraries that were missing. ugh! Libraries I am not familar with nor where to get them. It just seems when I try to install an rpm all itever does is ask for dependencies I don't have.

I thought I knew enough about software installs, but I must admit this is getting difficult.

Do you think if I install php from a tar I won't have dependency problems??

I think I'm lost.

php-gd

chris, you might do what I will likely do, which is to rebuild the linux box not installing apache, php, ssl or any of it, and then using apachetoolbox to get these components installed instead of the rpms.
