PHP recompile to get JPEG support

How to enable JPEG support in PHP

1. Run the below command to test whether JPEG support is there or not

#php -r 'print_r(gd_info());'

Output :

Array
(
    [GD Version] => bundled (2.1.0 compatible)
    [FreeType Support] =>
    [T1Lib Support] =>
    [GIF Read Support] => 1
    [GIF Create Support] => 1
    [JPEG Support] =>
    [PNG Support] => 1
    [WBMP Support] => 1
    [XPM Support] =>
    [XBM Support] => 1
    [JIS-mapped Japanese Font Support] =>
)

2. rpm -qa | grep -e libjpeg

if you get output like below

libjpeg-turbo-1.2.1-3.el6_5

then go forward, otherwise install the library

3. check where the library is

find / -name libjpeg*

it may be inside /usr/lib64. Make symbollic link to /usr/lib

ln -s /usr/lib64/libjpeg.so /usr/lib/libjpeg.so
ln -s /usr/lib64/libjpeg.so.62.0.0 /usr/lib/libjpeg.so.62.0.0
ln -s /usr/lib64/libjpeg.so.62 /usr/lib/libjpeg.so.62

4. then recompile PHP

goto the php downloaded folder and do "make clean"

then

./configure --with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs --with-mysql --with-zlib --enable-mbstring  --with-gd  --with-pdo-mysql --with-jpeg --with-jpeg-dir=/usr/lib

make

make install

5. Verify JPEG support as below


#php -r 'print_r(gd_info());'

    [GD Version] => bundled (2.1.0 compatible)
    [FreeType Support] =>
    [T1Lib Support] =>

    [JPEG Support] => 1
    [PNG Support] => 1
    [WBMP Support] => 1
