How to Solve this Error

I already Installed GD using Following comment. sudo apt-get install php5-gd and also Apache Server Restarted. My Laravel Version is 5.3 and Ubuntu Version is 14.04

Solution 1:

I have installed php7, I did the following to solve exactly the same error

sudo apt-get install php7.0-gd
sudo apt-get install php7.0-intl
sudo apt-get install php7.0-xsl

Solution 2:

If you are working in PHP version 5.* then you have to install

sudo apt-get install php5-gd

And if you are working in PHP version 7.* then you have to install

sudo apt-get install php7.0-gd

Hope it will work...

And if you are working in PHP version 7.2 then you have to install

sudo apt-get install php7.2-gd... it worked for me

Solution 3:

Open your php.ini and uncomment this line:

;extension=php_gd2.dll
