Fatal error: Call to undefined function, What is it!!!!!

[VitoCorleone]

Hi,

i have been getting the following errors when i run some of my scrpits on my WAMP5.

Fatal error: Call to undefined function blah blah blah line 17

What could it be, I had a look see to check if my EXIF and MBSTRINg was installed, and they seem to be as they are in the module extensions installed in the php.ini file it seems.

Can anyone help? should i reinstall my WAMP5?

Insufficient data for a meaningful answer.

It might be in order to give us a peek a the offending script line.

Ok, Here is what i am running

I have the following code to display an image in PHP

<?php

// get a file name
$file='eclipse.jpg';
// check it is a jpeg file
if(exif_imagetype($file) == IMAGETYPE_JPEG) {

$exif = exif_read_data($file,"COMPUTED,IFD0", TRUE);


print ("Picture taken {$exif['IFD0']['DateTime']} ".
"with a {$exif['IFD0']['Make']} " .
"{$exif['IFD0']['Model']} " .
"<br>");
}

else {
print ('Wrong image type');
}
?>

But having the image in my root folder which is diplaying the page via my local host i get the following ERROR message:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function exif_imagetype() in c:\wamp\

http://www\get.php

on line 17

On line 17 is>>>>

if(exif_imagetype($file) == IMAGETYPE_JPEG) {

When you point your web browser to a script that consists entirely of:

<?php
phpinfo();
?>

What does the output of the script have to say about the EXIF extension?

Hmmm,

i ran :

<?php
phpinfo();
?>

and there is no mention of exif in the whole page, i also did search and find "exif" on the entire page but nothing is found.

There, then, is your problem. The exif library is, for some reason, not available to PHP.

If it came with your distribution, it may be that the library is in the wrong directory. Did the exif library come with your PHP distribution?
