Installing Gallery2

[community-manager]

Hello Bev,

gd2 is already installed on the server and the version you are using is: 2.0.34.

And about the upgrades: As we wouldn't know which of our customers do/want or require upgrades, we leave it to their discretion but I need to let you know that we try hard to keep our apps as current as possible.

These links may help you get going with upgrades:

Wordpress has a good guide on how to upgrade: http://codex.wordpress.org/Upgrading_WordPress
Gallery also has some info: http://codex.gallery2.org/Gallery2ownload#Upgrades

Thank you,

[Bev]

Thank you for the upgrade info, Timur.

Regarding Gd, when I go to Site Admin > Plugins on my Gallery site, it tells me that the installed version of Gd is 1.1.1.

If you create a text file named phpinfo.php and isert the following text in the file:

<?php phpinfo() ?>

Then upload the file to your site, then browse to http://your-domain.com/phpinfo.php, you can see some more information about the version of GD that is installed on the server, among other things. This information might be confusing to read for the novice, but contains tons of information about the versions of various plug-ins etc.

Regardless of the version number, the installed GD component will allow you to use the Gd Graphics Toolkit in Gallery2. It has been tested previously with our Linux-platform hosting service. If you have any other problems, let us know.
