Sure thing @clarecorker,

First you need to log into your server using SSH. Simply open Command Prompt (cmd) for Windows or Terminal for Mac and type the following:

SSH [username]@[server-ip]
Replace the []
Then it will ask for password just type it in, for security reasons you won’t see what you’re typing.

After that you should be logged in and you’ll just have to install the GD library by typing:

sudo apt-get install php7.0-gd

Final step is to restart your server, if you’re using Apache2 use apachectl restart if you’re using Nginx try service nginx restart

Hope this helps.

It runs on WordPress why else will I ask here, there’s no requirement for this only PHP versions and MySQL. If it’s regarding SSL installation fine it’s not WordPress, but this is WordPress’s Media Library and there’s no manual saying that I should install that. I figure it out myself after studying WordPress functions.php and that suppose to be what a proper “volunteer” should help instead of sending a random link to a thread without considering the WordPress forum rule is to look for similar issues before posting.

Ah never mind, fixed it. Its the GD Library not installed.

Here’s the SSH line command to install it:
sudo apt-get install php7.0-gd
Use this to stop Apache for it to make changes.
sudo apachectl stop
Start Apache now and everything is fixed.
sudo apachectl start

Hmm, now that I thought of it, this forum isn’t really helpful as promised.

I had already looked through every thread regarding this and that does not help since my PHP version is already at 7.0 as stated above. Clearing caches do not work too.
