E-Blah Community  /  Install Issues  /  Installing GD::SecurityImage
Posted by: dekiscool, July 1, 2008, 2:37pm
Hello. I am a newbie here and was wondering how to install the GD::SecurityImage. I downloaded it and uploaded everything to the cgi-bin/forum/GD and Prefs folders. I tried the register and I do not see the letters in the security box. How do I fix this. Can someone please give me step by step instructions? Do I need edit any of the files?? Thanks in advance.

Do you get any errors?
Did you upload the GD folder in ASCII and the font in BINARY?

Ok...so just to make sure, I deleted the GD Security Image and reuploaded everything ASCII except the font which I uploaded in Binary. I logged in and set it to Human Verify and logged out. I clicked on Register and when the Registration pages came up, everything was there except the security font in the box. Below the box it says "Could not find/open font". Not sure what I need to do. Do I need to edit anything? Please give step by step instructions. Thank you.

This was due to the host not allowing the font to be within the cgi-bin folder.
I uploaded the font to blahdocs and adjusted Register.pl to look for the font in blahdocs instead.
