copied!<p>As Nerdling points out, PHP must be compiled with the GD extension enabled, therefore there's no <em>clean</em> way of adding GD2 to the version of PHP that ships with Mac OS X.</p> <p>This solution worked for me (Mac OS X 10.5.2, should work with any 10.5), but you'll have to make a new PHP installation. However, <strong>this will not undo your other installs of PEAR and MySQL</strong>, you'll just have to <code>sudo</code> one extra line.</p> <p>Before we start, if you've already enabled the built in PHP, you'll have to re-comment the PHP line (LoadModule php5_module libexec/apache2/libphp5.so) in (/etc/apache2/)httpd.conf. And now, the steps:</p> <ol> <li>In Terminal.app, type <code>sudo ln -s /etc/apache2 /etc/httpd</code><br /> This makes a symlink so entropy's package can install and function correctly.<br /><br /></li> <li>Download entropy's <a href="http://www2.entropy.ch/download/entropy-php-5.2.4-1-apache2.tar.gz" rel="nofollow noreferrer">PHP 5.2.4 for Apache 2</a> package and install it.<br /><br /></li> <li>Again in Terminal, type:<br /><br /> <code>sudo cp /usr/sbin/httpd /usr/sbin/httpd-fat<br /> sudo lipo /usr/sbin/httpd -thin i386 -output /usr/sbin/httpd</code><br /> This downgrades Apache 2 to 32 bits so it can play nice with entropy's PHP package.<br /><br /> <code>sudo ln -s /usr/local/php5 /usr/local/apache2<br /> sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libexpat.dylib /usr/local/apache2/lib/libexpat.0.dylib</code><br /> This fixes a misplaced file.<br /><br /> <code>sudo mv /usr/bin/php /usr/bin/php_back<br /> sudo ln -s /usr/local/php5/bin/php /usr/bin/php</code><br /> This fixes possible errors with PEAR/PHP extensions.<br /><br /></li> <li>Restart Apache (can be done typing <code>sudo apachectl restart</code>).<br /><br /></li> <li>Upvote ;)<br /><br /></li> <li>Done.<br /><br /></li> </ol> <p><em>Some reference: <a href="http://www.entropy.ch/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?t=3074" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://www.entropy.ch/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?t=3074</a></em></p>
