Hi

I get a warning message that PHP GD extension is not installed or turned on
Where can I activate it ?

Thank you

Hi,

First stop the Apache & MySQL service from AMPPS Control Center.

Then you can go to AMPPS Control Center -> PHP -> Php Extension -> check php_gd2 and click on Apply and wait for 2 mins before closing the dialogue box.

You can now restart the Apache & MySQL and your extension should be turned on. You can check the same from:
http://localhost/cgi-bin/phpinfo.cgi

Hope this helps.

I'm not sure about the cgi-bin phpinfo, however if you create a file called say info.php and have in it

PHP Code

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

in a web accessible directory, you should see the info you are looking for.
