GD2 - no .gif's but still have error

[trainer]

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: imagegif() - image-inc.php on line 113

already uploaded some fine but now having problems

there aren't any .gif's in the upload directory, all the files are .jpg files!

any idea what i am doing wrong?

Did you edit watermark.php, like it tells you in the config-inc.php file?

[trainer]

not putting water-marks on the images

One of the jpg images is really a gif it looks like

Also make sure in your admin options you have gif's not on the available image types

PHP uses a command which actually reads the header of the file to determine what the file type is. Even though the image may have a .jpg extension, it may actually be a .gif

oh that might be a problem! LOL

how can i tell which file is the problem file? is there a program out there that will switch them back so i can delete the gif file?

thanks for all the help!

The easiest thing might be to download all the files in your uploads directory for you and then upload them one at a time

oh dang... i have over 1200 images... that is going to take a LONG time

You have 1200 images in your personal upload directory? Not data directory

Anotherwards if your user 1

uploads/1

has 1200 images?

just got this software so not exactly sure what you mean...

i have setup different categories that apply to my web site. there are a total of 1200 images that i am trying to upload to about 10 different categories. i am trying to do a mass upload by following the instructions in the upload images page.

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: imagegif() in /usr/local/psa/home/vhosts/ws2-intermedia.com.ar/httpdocs/desarrollo/foto/photo/image-inc.php on line 113
I need search a solution.

Upload say 50-100 at a time so PHP does not timeout

Reading various threads here would tell you the answer. Photopost works with gifs just fine. You will find by reading threads what image formats are allowed depend on the processor you are using. You are using GD which does not process gifs. If you want to upload gifs you need to use imagemagick if your server has it. If your server does not you need to remove gif's as an acceptable image type as you will not be able to use them

And of course you can always attempt to install ImageMagick yourself as a non-root user. This would allow you .gif's
