| ==Install the GD Library on the Mac OS X 10.5 Server==
| |
| | |
| The Mac OS X Server 10.5 Leopard comes together with PHP 5.2.4 ... this is correct for Moodle but not the missing GD Library support. To see which PHP version is installed on your server you should edit the file /Library/WebServer/Documents/info.php. You must activate the function call phpinfo() by deleting the both slashes // at the start of the function line. After saving the file you can get all PHP informations in your browser. Please look at http://server-address/info.php ... you will not find the GD library support.
| |
| | |
| <?php
| |
| // You can use Server Admin to enable the Apache PHP module; it's disabled by default.
| |
| // You can uncomment the phpinfo() directive below to provide a default PHP info page
| |
| // but note that this displays information about your host's configuration.
| |
| phpinfo();
| |
| ?>
| |
| | |
| | |
| To get this missing GD library support into your Mac Server it would be the easiest way that you download the file PHP 5.2.5 (beta6 or newer). For the package please try this URL http://www2.entropy.ch/download/php5-5.2.5-6-beta.tar.gz or search inside the forum [http://www.entropy.ch/phpbb2/viewforum.php?f=2 PHP on Mac OS X] for a newer one. Download and unpack the package. Move the contained folder php5 into /usr/local ... so you get /usr/local/php5
| |
| | |
| sudo mv /usr/local/php5 ~/Desktop/php5.old
| |
| curl -O http://www2.entropy.ch/download/php5-5.2.5-6-beta.tar.gz
| |
| tar -xzf php5-*-beta.tar.gz
| |
| sudo mv php5 /usr/local/
| |
| | |
| | |
| Configure the web server so that it uses the new PHP library from now on. Therefore edit the file /etc/apache2/httpd.conf. You should comment the line "LoadModule php5_module libexec/apache2/libphp5.so" by adding a # as the first character of the line. After this you add the new line "LoadModule php5_module local/php5/libphp5.so".
| |
| | |
| #LoadModule php5_module libexec/apache2/libphp5.so
| |
| LoadModule php5_module local/php5/libphp5.so
| |
| | |
| | |
| Save the file and restart the web server. Now you should look at http://server-address/info.php again. I hope that everything will be okay and you will find the version number PHP 5.2.5 and the running GD library support. Congratulations ... the first step is done!
