Problem with php-gd (long) [solved]

[Steve Scrimpshire]

I have a php-gd script to output an image:

 

http://omarserenity.com/end.php

 

and, to use it in my sig, I named it end.png and added this in my .htaccess file:

 

<Files end.png>

ForceType application/x-php

</Files>

 

I also tried:

ForceType application/x-httpd-php

 

When I try to view the image here:

http://omarserenity.com/end.png

 

I get:

The image "http://omarserenity.com/end.png" cannot be displayed, because it contains errors

 

I have restarted apache each time I edited my .htaccess file. The image here: http://omarserenity.com/end.php is exactly the same script as end.png and end.php works fine. The end.png script worked perfectly in MDV 2005 LE.

Apache was not parsing my .htaccess file because in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf there was still a line

AllowOverride None

for /var/www/html and that overrode the

AllowOverride All in /etc/httpd/conf/commonhttpd.conf.

 

Edit: FWIW, the line in .htaccess has to be:

 

ForceType application/x-httpd-php
