PHP GD support will not enable webp

Hi All

Has anyone successfully got gd support for webp enabled?

I have installed without any issue using Apache / Nginx

OS - CentOS 7.6

Have installed all requirement + extra and gd support will not enable.

libwebp-devel is installed

  • Tried with ImageMagick (webp support shows enabled)
  • Have recompiled all versions of PHP 7 to get working with webadmin using:

–with-jpeg-dir=/usr/lib64/’ ‘–with-webp-dir=/usr/lib64/’ ‘–with-freetype-dir=/usr/lib64/’ '–with-png-dir=/usr/lib64/

checking for GD support… yes
checking for the location of libwebp… /usr/lib64/
checking for the location of libjpeg… /usr/lib64/
checking for the location of libpng… /usr/lib64/
checking for the location of libXpm… no
checking for FreeType 2… /usr/lib64/
checking whether to enable truetype string function in GD… no
checking whether to enable JIS-mapped Japanese font support in GD… no
checking for WebPGetInfo in -lwebp… yes
checking for jpeg_read_header in -ljpeg… yes
checking for png_write_image in -lpng… yes

php -r ‘var_dump(gd_info());’
array(12) {
[“GD Version”]=>
string(26) “bundled (2.1.0 compatible)”
[“FreeType Support”]=>
bool(true)
[“FreeType Linkage”]=>
string(13) “with freetype”
[“GIF Read Support”]=>
bool(true)
[“GIF Create Support”]=>
bool(true)
[“JPEG Support”]=>
bool(true)
[“PNG Support”]=>
bool(true)
[“WBMP Support”]=>
bool(true)
[“XPM Support”]=>
bool(true)
[“XBM Support”]=>
bool(true)
[“WebP Support”]=>
bool(false)
[“JIS-mapped Japanese Font Support”]=>
bool(false)

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Same OS version with apache, nginx, php 7.1.30

php -r ‘var_dump(gd_info());’
array(12) {
[“GD Version”]=>
string(5) “2.2.5”
[“FreeType Support”]=>
bool(true)
[“FreeType Linkage”]=>
string(13) “with freetype”
[“GIF Read Support”]=>
bool(true)
[“GIF Create Support”]=>
bool(true)
[“JPEG Support”]=>
bool(true)
[“PNG Support”]=>
bool(true)
[“WBMP Support”]=>
bool(true)
[“XPM Support”]=>
bool(true)
[“XBM Support”]=>
bool(true)
[“WebP Support”]=>
bool(true)
[“JIS-mapped Japanese Font Support”]=>
bool(false)

Have resolved issue myself… webp now working and enabled OLS. 1.4.47

How can you did it ? Can you tell me the detail ? I am facing the same problem and I want to enable the webp support with php7.3(LS-php 7.3).But I don’t know how, even I had install most extension for php
