New Comment:

Thank you for this bug report. To properly diagnose the problem, we
need a short but complete example script to be able to reproduce
this bug ourselves.

A proper reproducing script starts with <?php and ends with ?>,
is max. 10-20 lines long and does not require any external
resources such as databases, etc.

If possible, make the script source available online and provide
an URL to it here. Try avoid embedding huge scripts into the report.

One other point. I was able to get this to work with just "file.jpg"
if the image is in the same dir. The problem showed forth once I tried
to put the images in a different dir.

Im running PHP4.3.0 on RHL9

As far as the second original snippet I left out the first slash in the
comments. In the actual code I included it.

Is this enough info?
I cut and pasted this from phpinfo() on GD.

This is definitly not the case under windows either. I'm using GD2 (PHP
5 / PHP 4.3.9).

I suppose it is possible this is a GD1 issue, there were many changes
to the path handling. As Derick said: please provide some more
information.

(Also, the second code snippet is still a relative link.)

This is not true, there is no reason why to use the full path (alteast
not on Linux). Please fill in your PHP version and operating system and
provide information on how you compiled PHP.

Description:
------------
The other day I spent 2 hours trying to find a bug in my code becasue
imagecreatefromjpeg() requires absolute path and the docs dont make it
clear that you cannot use a relative path. There is a user comment
about this, but I think it probably needs to be in the docs.

Thanks for the help!

Reproduce code:
---------------
imagecreatefromjpeg("nextdir/filename.jpg");


it should be something like
imagecreatefromjpeg("var/www/project/nextdir/filename.jpg");



Expected result:
----------------
no output



------------------------------------------------------------------------
