Could you provide any simple minimal steps to reproduce the issue? Answering my own question: php -m lists all the modules.

Same issue here. I had nextcloud working and now it does not work anymore. Other apps using gd don't work anymore. And php -m does not list gd as well. apt list --installed | grep php does list gd however.

Nothing 2a:.../usr/lib$ apt list --installed | grep php

fornwall commented 2 weeks ago

I think that after https://github.com/termux/termux-packages/pull/21072 the gd extension needs to be enabled explicitly by specifying extension=gd in $PREFIX/lib/php.ini (that file needs to be created if it does not exist).

After doing that, php -m shows the gd module, and some example php scripts using gd works.

Don't know much about how php is normally packaged, but having a peek at how it works in ubuntu we should probably setup so that php automatically loads a gd.ini file (or similar) with extension=gd.so once the php-gd package is installed.

If extension=gd is specified in php.ini file and php-gd is not installed, php -m shows a big warning.

Alpine Linux does the same. I'm exploring it.

freebrowser1 commented 2 weeks ago

I added the line extension=gd.so to php.ini and php -m now does show gd. And php -r 'var_dump(gd_info());' shows:

array(15) {
  ["GD Version"]=>
  string(5) "2.3.3"
  ["FreeType Support"]=>

  ["FreeType Linkage"]=>

so it IS installed. And phpinfo() also shows it:

But with Apache it does NOT work. I obviously kicked apache by sv stop httpd followed by sv start httpd before opening a webpage requiring gd, e.g. an empty one with only phpinfo(); in it, but still to no avail, as phpinfo() run from a script on a webpage does not show gd, while it is included.

EDIT: When there is no solution, how can I revert to PHP 8.3.8 ? Under 8.3.8 gd worked normally.

freebrowser1 commented 2 weeks ago

In the phpinfo() as I stated above I see --enable-gd=shared --with-external-gd but not --with-gd Is php properly built ?

TomJo2000 commented 2 weeks ago

php-gd was split out into a separate subpackage a while ago, https://github.com/termux/termux-packages/pull/21072 this is also done by Arch, Cygwin, Nixpkgs, or Void Linux.

Please ensure you also have the php-gd package installed.

Baturax commented 2 weeks ago

Since other distros have already done so, it would be good if it stayed like that

The issue has not been fixed yet.

freebrowser1 commented 2 weeks ago

I tried a gd.ini in the same folder as php.ini $(PREFIX)/user/lib with just a line extension=gd.so, but to no avail (i.e. php -m did show gd, but not in phpinfo(); under Apache). I hope this will be fixed soon, as many webpages / web interfaces require gd.

You should add to $PREFIX/lib/php.ini Like vim $PREFIX/lib/php.ini

Biswa96 commented 2 weeks ago

I have added a pull request to fix this issue. Would you like to test the packages from GitHub Actions artifacts of that pull request? Link https://github.com/termux/termux-packages/actions/runs/10609522011

As I explained in https://github.com/termux/termux-packages/issues/21262#issuecomment-2314842020, I copied the behavior from Alpine Linux. As a user, you do not have to add or edit any file. You just install php and php-gd. Then php loads the extensions from files in $PREFIX/etc/php/conf.d. For example, php-gd has gd.ini.

Now I have to add those ini files for other php extensions as well ⏳

freebrowser1 commented 2 weeks ago

So what should I do now to get it working ? I have installed php and php-gd and enabled extension=gd.so in php.ini. But there is no $PREFIX/etc/php folder on my system. Should I create that folder and create the subfolder conf.d inside it ? And what should I put into that folder ? Should I update (pkg update && pkg upgrade) to update php ?

Biswa96 commented 2 weeks ago

So what should I do now to get it working ?

If you do not know how to test packages from CI artifacts, then just wait for the pull request to be merged.

freebrowser1 commented 2 weeks ago

Well, I saw that there was a zip inside it with many deb files. So can I install these with dpkg -i <debfile> ?

Biswa96 commented 2 weeks ago

The above workarounds with php.ini are not required and can be removed now.

freebrowser1 commented 2 weeks ago

Well I just installed the patched dpkg modules, restarted Apache, but gd is still not loaded under Apache. I did this:

dpkg -i *.deb

This issued errors appeared due to not all dependenscies already installed, so I did:

pkg update && pkg upgrade

Biswa96 commented 2 weeks ago

This issue is about php and I have not look into apache. Please provide some info about expected and current output and steps to reproduce it.

freebrowser1 commented 2 weeks ago

I just added the terminal output above. But php still does not load gd under Apache and most websites use Apache. To reproduce, install php and Apache: pkg install php apache2 php-apache php-gd and copy attached httpd.conf into $PREFIX/etc/apache2 for loading php into apache: httpd.conf.zip and add a file /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/share/apache2/default-site/htdocs/phpinfo.php with contents <?php phpinfo(); and then load in the browser on the device http://localhost:8080/phpinfo.php. This shows all loaded modules but no gd.

Biswa96 commented 2 weeks ago

I am not familiar with web dev stuff and do not know how to setup that. Just provide the commands to reproduce it and I will run.

Biswa96 commented 2 weeks ago

If I run php -r 'phpinfo();' command it shows gd.

freebrowser1 commented 2 weeks ago

Exactly that did it for me too, when run standalone, that already did it with the original 8.3.10 with the edit in php.ini. But most websites use Apache and many of them are useless without gd.

Can this issue be fixed by reverting to including compiling gd into php just as it was in php 8.3.8 and earlier ?

freebrowser1 commented 2 weeks ago

I am not familiar with web dev stuff and do not know how to setup that. Just provide the commands to reproduce it and I will run.

To reproduce, install php and Apache: pkg install php apache2 php-apache php-gd and copy attached httpd.conf into $PREFIX/etc/apache2 over existing httpd.conf for loading php into apache: httpd.conf.zip and add a file /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/share/apache2/default-site/htdocs/phpinfo.php with contents <?php phpinfo(); . Start apache by apachectl start (ignore the error message about the domain), then load in the browser on the device http://localhost:8080/phpinfo.php. This shows all loaded modules but no gd.

freebrowser1 commented 2 weeks ago

Now I updated PHP on another device where 8.3.10 was with the 'royal' way using pkg update && pkg upgrade which resulted in updating php, php-gd and php-apache from 8.3.10 to 8.3.10_1. Then I kicked Apache but according to phpinfo() the gd module is not loaded. But I also saw that php.ini was on another location than on 8.3.10 (according to phpinfo()), so I removed extension=gd from it and from $PREFIX/usr/lib, moved php.ini to $PREFIX/usr/etc/php and kicked Apache again.

Configuration File (php.ini) Path   /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/etc/php

Now my original php settings were retained, but still no gd, despite there now is an automatically created file $PREFIX/usr/etc/php/conf.d/gd.ini with the line extension=gd in it.

This is in the 'configure command' in phpinfo():

 '/home/builder/.termux-build/php/src/configure'  '--disable-dependency-tracking' '--prefix=/data/data/com.termux/files/usr' '--libdir=/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/lib' '--disable-rpath' '--disable-rpath-hack' '--host=aarch64-linux-android' 'ac_cv_func_res_nsearch=no' 'ac_cv_phpdbg_userfaultfd_writefault=no' 'php_cv_lib_gd_gdImageCreateFromPng=yes' 'php_cv_lib_gd_gdImageCreateFromAvif=yes' 'php_cv_lib_gd_gdImageCreateFromWebp=yes' 'php_cv_lib_gd_gdImageCreateFromJpeg=yes' 'php_cv_lib_gd_gdImageCreateFromBmp=yes' 'php_cv_lib_gd_gdImageCreateFromTga=yes' '--enable-bcmath' '--enable-calendar' '--enable-exif' '--enable-mbstring' '--enable-opcache' '--enable-pcntl' '--enable-sockets' '--mandir=/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/share/man' '--with-bz2=/data/data/com.termux/files/usr' '--with-config-file-path=/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/etc/php' '--with-config-file-scan-dir=/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/etc/php/conf.d' '--with-curl=/data/data/com.termux/files/usr' '--with-ldap=shared,/data/data/com.termux/files/usr' '--with-ldap-sasl' '--with-openssl=/data/data/com.termux/files/usr' '--with-readline=/data/data/com.termux/files/usr' '--with-sodium=shared,/data/data/com.termux/files/usr' '--with-iconv-dir=/data/data/com.termux/files/usr' '--with-zlib' '--with-pgsql=shared,/data/data/com.termux/files/usr' '--with-pdo-pgsql=shared,/data/data/com.termux/files/usr' '--with-mysqli=mysqlnd' '--with-pdo-mysql=mysqlnd' '--with-mysql-sock=/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/tmp/mysqld.sock' '--with-apxs2=/home/builder/.termux-build/php/tmp/apxs-wrapper.sh' '--with-iconv=/data/data/com.termux/files/usr' '--enable-fpm' '--enable-gd=shared,/data/data/com.termux/files/usr' '--with-external-gd' '--with-external-pcre' '--with-zip' '--with-xsl' '--with-gmp' '--with-ffi' '--with-tidy=/data/data/com.termux/files/usr' '--enable-intl' '--sbindir=/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/bin' '--disable-nls' '--enable-shared' '--enable-static' '--libexecdir=/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/libexec' 'host_alias=aarch64-linux-android' 'PKG_CONFIG=/home/builder/.termux-build/_cache/android-r27-api-24-v1/bin/pkg-config' 'PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR=/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/lib/pkgconfig:/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/share/pkgconfig' 'CPP=aarch64-linux-android-cpp'

So this issue has still to be fixed, or reverted to a pre 8.3.10 version.

No reaction yet ? Why not reverting to a php binary with an included gd library just as before ?

The underlying issue is related to rpath. If you want to load php modules with apache, add this workaround patchelf --add-needed libphp.so $PREFIX/lib/php/gd.so. After adding that workaround, php -m will not load gd module.

That indeed worked and php under Apache works with gd. But why does php -m not work anymore ?

I've already told its a rpath issue and can't figure out any solution yet.

So why not revert to the old situation as php 8.3.8 where it did work as before ? The (in the first impression minor) update from 8.3.8 => 8.3.10 suddenly disabled gd.

There was an issue to split gd dependencies from php #21068

termux / termux-packages

[Bug]: php gd error #21262
