[maplab-users] Preview Error - libgd and FreeType

[Zak James]

Brent,

I think you might get more specific help on the mapserver-users list as 
this isn't really a maplab issue. The basic problem is that when you 
compile php, it's not using the version of gd that you built, but the 
internal php version in the ext directory. Reconfigure php 
--with-gd=<path to your gd> and then recompile and reinstall mapscript.
