Resized images turns black [SOLVED]

[stefanjohannsen]

Hi everybody

I have a very strange problem with one of my TYPOlight sites. Whenever an image is scaled it turns black. Take a look at the site: http://holmgaardbak.dk

Under "Galleri" you can see that all thumbs are black. This started happening out of nowhere...
Could it be a problem with the GD engine?

All my other TYPOlight installation runs on another server and I have newer had any problems with them. So I think this is related to the server.

Any idea to solve this?

Just wanted to say that I tried your images, and they are not the problem. So I'd try and see if your host changed anything in their setup lately...

Hi Vera

Thank you for taking the time to help here. I have now solved the problem by updating to the latest version of TL.

Still can't figure out why that solved the problem?

I found this thread on Google, so for future reference: I've found that updating TYPOlight (to 2.7.2) solves the problem. But for people who for whatever reason can't or do not have the time to do, there is an easy fix.

/system/libraries/Controller.php needs to be changed.
Find the line below (line 760)

if ($arrGdinfo['JPG Support'])

and change into

if ($arrGdinfo['JPG Support'] || $arrGdinfo['JPEG Support'])

The GD JPEG support variable changed name, so with this change both new and old name is supported.
