imagecreatefromjpeg

[areisinger]

Hi all,
i´m using the php function imagecreatefromjpeg($file) without success on the new platform.
anybody has a reason for that?

the script just dies, no error or similar :-/

my test script:
echo "dying?";
$img = imagecreatefromjpeg('/home/users/web/...../images/pub/IMG_4974.JPG');
echo "here?";

// dying is the last thing i can see from it

I had problems with the GD libraries after the migration. Never did get them to work (waited 4 days for PowWeb and had no response). So, I switched to ImageMagick and am still having some problems. There has been a Level 2 ticket out with PW since Saturday and no answer.

I recommend trying phpthumb, I got it to work pretty well on the new platform.

I had a few problems with phpthumb when I migrated, but got it all working after a bit of tweaking. I only use it for auto thumbnails, but it works. I only had to change one thing in the URLs.
