installing gd extension

Post by ozmodiar »

Hi,

Hopefully this one should be easy enough to get an answer for.

I am running PHP4.2 on an apache server in Red Hat linux. I want to update PHP with the gd extension.

When I try:

rpm -q gd

I get a message saying I have version 1.8.4-4 installed. But how do I get PHP to recognise that it is there?

I have been finding it very difficult to find a straight forward method for doing this.

Can anyone tell me what steps I need to take?

Thanks
