Error creating gif thumbnails, but fine with jpg
Whenever I try to create a gif thumbnail here is what I get:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: imagegif() in /home/office/sites/radio86se/tp/textpattern/lib/class.thumb.php on line 239
Any idea?

Re: Error creating gif thumbnails, but fine with jpg
Sounds like you are using an outdated version of PHP and/or the relevant php extensions. There used to be problems with the gif licence until about a year or so ago, so until then gif-functions ewre missing in most libraries for a few years.

Is it possible that you are trying to create a gif thumbnail from a jpg original?

Hum I don’t see how that could be possible since textpattern is the one that “guess” the format, I will investigate this gif licencing issue however, I think it sounds more like it.
We have version 4.3.8.
I hope the sys admin will hear my call to update.

gif – Only supported in GD versions older than gd-1.6 and newer than gd-2.0.28. Read-only GIF support is available with PHP 4.3.0 and the bundled GD-library. Write support is avaliable since PHP 4.3.9 and PHP 5.0.1.
