“No php extensions are available to edit images on the server. ImageMagick or GD is requiredNo php extensions are available to edit images on the server. ImageMagick or GD is required”
Hi, am still learning to setup new server with VM (former cPaneler)…
One of the problems I run into is this error above (wordpress imagify plugin). Am on php 7.4 Centos 8…
Any help is much appreciated!
Thx a millioon
Dan
Try to install GD with
yum install php-gd
You are aware that CentOS 8 is not as yet a Grade A supported system on Virtualmin? See https://www.virtualmin.com/os-support.html
Hallo Calport, thank you somuch.
When I try that command, I get its already installed.
"[root@web ~]# yum install php-gd
Last metadata expiration check: 0:51:26 ago on Sat 20 Jun 2020 10:13:23 AM CEST.
Package php-gd-7.4.7-1.el8.remi.x86_64 is already installed.
Dependencies resolved.
Nothing to do.
Complete!
"
NO, was not aware that Centos 8 is not yet officially supported…could that give me all these problems?
Thx
Dan
Have alook here pretty good howto (harmful link removed) IT goes through the install and some problems
Hi Alec,
thank you so much!
Do you think this error could have something to do with it? not so sure if fpm can be the issue? (and why its an error)?

It’ll show up on the A list soon enough and I doubt CentOS 8 is the problem you’re having with PHP.
How did you install PHP 7.4? As a replacement for 7.2 or in addition to 7.2?
php -v
will show the version for ‘system PHP’ configured with /etc/php.ini. Installing multiple PHP versions involves separate php.ini files and executables.
If 7.2 is still the system’s PHP as installed from the CentOS repo, and assuming PHP 7.4 came from the Remi repository as an extra, see if these packages are available:
dnf info php74-php-pecl-imagick
dnf info php74-php-gd
Notice that package names for a multi-PHP install are different from what’s needed for system PHP. See the Remi repo wizard for help with that: Remi's RPM repository
Restart the web server if you install one, the other or both.
systemctl restart httpd
systemctl restart php-fpm
Then use the -m switch for a list of modules/extensions installed for PHP 7.4, except use the path to its binary.
/usr/bin/php74 -m
Hope this helps. Multiple PHP installations can get messy and you can always remove all of them and start over with a clean slate.
HI Ramin,
thank you so much… am not sured if I meeded up something, I only have 7.3. and 7.4 on the system, but am not sure if the php.ini s are ok/there
php -v gives me this:
[root@CentOS-81-64-minimal ~]# php -v
PHP Warning: Module ‘zip’ already loaded in Unknown on line 0
PHP Warning: Module ‘zip’ already loaded in Unknown on line 0
PHP 7.4.7 (cli) (built: Jun 9 2020 10:57:17) ( NTS )
Copyright © The PHP Group
Zend Engine v3.4.0, Copyright © Zend Technologies
with Zend OPcache v7.4.7, Copyright ©, by Zend Technologies
seems also there is an error with zip (other forumpost of mine)
7.2 is no more on the system, 7.3 and 7.4 installed to my knowledge from Remi repo
The dnf info php74-php-pecl-imagick and dnf info php74-php-gd commands show nothing, no response
Would you suggest to deinstall both php and reinstall? If so, do you have a hint for me how and what to install?
THank you so much
Dan
update: I did my best to remove all php
now only 7.4 is on server
but still get the
PHP Warning: Module ‘zip’ already loaded in Unknown on line 0
PHP Warning: Module ‘zip’ already loaded in Unknown on line 0
warning when doing php -v
and website is down with 503 service error
the error log says

hmmmm

Your 7.4 installation apparently came from the multi package so remove that one too. Eliminate PHP entirely for a clean start. Try to get rid of all extra extensions and modules. dnf search/check/info can help narrow down leftovers. Sometimes the command history helps with recall.
Decide which PHP version you prefer for the default system installation, i.e., the one that uses /etc/php.ini. In theory, you don’t need a system PHP but I’ve never used it that way and can’t give adequate advice, nor would I recommend it. For my CentOS 8 installation I’m sticking with 7.2 from the CentOS repo and will add 7.3 from Remi eventually. I don’t want more than two PHPs to manage for my light requirements.
Since you’re starting fresh with Remi’s repositories enabled, you could be getting all PHP packages from there, from 5.6 to 7.4 to 8.x beta. If you go that route, for extra measure I suggest adding an exclusion in the CentOS Appstream repo to avoid any collisions.
If you prefer 7.3 or 7.4 for the system you’ll have to get them from Remi. Use the wizard and select ‘Default/Single version’ and follow instructions. Once installed its php.ini file will end up in /etc and php -v will output 7.3 or 7.4. For system PHP all *.ini files for various extensions and modules are in /etc/php.d.
For add-on PHP versions select ‘Multiple versions simultaneously’ with the Remi wizard and follow instructions.
Sorry, I’m drawing a blank on where add-on versions stash their php.ini files. Before I started using Webmin my CentOS 7 server stored them in /etc/opt/remi/73 and /etc/opt/remi/74… best I can recall. I do know you’ll find user.ini files in Virtualmin home directories for extra tuning per user. A phpinfo() file in a user’s public_html loaded in a browser will tell you all paths; or type /usr/bin/php73 -i for a big ugly screen dump with every detail.
It’s no less tricky installing packages for system and multi-PHP installations.
dnf install php-[pkg-name]
dnf install phpNN-php-[pkg-name]
So there’s a big difference in how to install the two packages that gave you grief, depending on how PHP 7.4 was installed in the first place.
dnf install php-gd
dnf install php74-php-gddnf install php-pecl-imagick
dnf install php74-php-pecl-imagick
I think you should approach this by getting system PHP fully installed first along with all extensions. Then take on any multi versions.
Please also note the following about third party repositories (just for reference of anyone stumbling on this thread):
This is half right. PHP 7.3 is available from CentOS in addition to Remi.
Every time I do this PHP stuff I need a refresher course. Here’s what worked for me if it’s any help.
I decided to replace 7.2 with 7.4 as the default and 7.3 as the extra, both from Remi.
dnf module reset php
dnf module enable php:remi-7.4
dnf update php\*
With 7.4 a batch of basic extensions updated automatically, including php-fpm, since this was an update. Other extensions can be installed in batches.
dnf install php-openssl php-pcre php-posix php-sockets php-spl php-tokenizer php-zlib ... and so on
7.4 configuration files are
/etc/php.ini
/etc/php.d/*.ini
7.3 starts out bare since it’s new, so php-fpm and other extensions need to be installed manually.
dnf install php73
dnf install php73-php-fpm php73-php-mysqlnd php73-php-xmlrpc php73-php-pear php73-php-pdo php73-php-opcache ... and so on
7.3 configuration files are
/etc/opt/remi/php73/php.ini
/etc/opt/remi/php73/php.d/*.ini
For extra measure I restarted Webmin after restarting httpd and php-fpm.
