How can I fix Heroku imagecreatefromjpeg()

Question

heroku report me a error: Call to undefined function imagecreatefromjpeg() ..at line 177, where at line 177 is: case 'jpg': case 'jpeg': $image_data = imagecreatefromjpeg($src_image); break;

I think heroku does not support jpeg or something, what can I do in that case?

It does not but you can try ImageMagick http://stackoverflow.com/a/11321611/1581448 — Kris Georgiev, Feb 12 '13 at 23:50

On Heroku, GD is a "shared" extension that you can enable in composer.json. No custom buildpack required, just add the ext-gd line in your composer.json:

{
  "require": {
    "ext-gd": "*"
  }
}

If this doesn't work at first, run `composer update` and try again. Worked for me! – Ed B May 30 '15 at 03:30

Working for me. – JeanCarlos Chavarria Aug 14 '19 at 20:58
@PedroAntônio `composer require ext-gd` – amacrobert Mar 11 '20 at 13:25
In that case, you'll have to edit the composer.json file manually and upload it to heroku using whatever method you use to get your source on heroku already. – amacrobert Mar 15 '20 at 23:16

You'll need to use a custom buildpack with imagick or gd compiled in.

I don't believe the latest version of heroku's official PHP buildpack has support for this, but I've created my own buildpacks for this too.

See https://github.com/winglian/heroku-buildpack-php (This version is built on 5.4.11 using PHP-FPM, but you can choose an older tagged branch for 5.3 support using mod_php.)

thank you for your response. only need to push buildpack to server? sorry I;m not experienced with that. – Pustiu314p Feb 13 '13 at 10:33
I had incorrectly linked to the official heroku buikdpack and not the custom one. How to configure your app to use it is in the README. You may have to make a small edit and git push to heroku after configuring the buuldpack. – Wing Lian Feb 13 '13 at 16:07
Thank you, I succeeded with that, now I have another problem with: Warning: session_start(): Cannot find serialization handler 'igbinary' which really do not know what that means – Pustiu314p Feb 14 '13 at 21:55
You can add [imagick.so as an extension](https://github.com/alkhoo/heroku-cedar-php-extension) – Alvin K. Apr 30 '13 at 07:35
@Pustiu314p - Can you upload your solution I have the same issue. – Rails beginner Jul 10 '13 at 09:09
