[solved] Configuring PHP with Litespeed for Jpeg GD Support

#1
I have recently installed Litespeed Web Server and have been overall happy with it and it's playing well with our websites, but in particular I am having trouble getting it to support Jpeg GD.

I configured PHP 5.2.14 with the following attributes on a CentOS 5 64bit system with cPanel:
'--with-mysqli' '--with-zlib' '--with-gd' '--enable-shmop' '--enable-track-vars' '--enable-sockets' '--enable-sysvsem' '--enable-sysvshm' '--enable-magic-quotes' '--enable-mbstring' '--with-iconv' '--with-libdir=lib64' '--with-mysql' '--with-pdo-mysql=shared' '--with-pdo-sqlite=shared' '--with-litespeed' '--with-jpeg-dir' '--with-png-dir'

I have not specified a directory for Jpeg and PNG because it's in the default /usr/lib and /usr/lib64 directories (I have tried specifying the directory as well with no luck).

The .so files are definitely in boh of those directories:

[root@server lib]#ls *libjpeg*
libjpeg.so libjpeg.so.62 libjpeg.so.62.0.0

[root@server lib64]#ls *libjpeg*
libjpeg.so libjpeg.so.62 libjpeg.so.62.0.0

And the correct RPMs are installed:

[root@server public_html]#rpm -qa|grep jpeg
libjpeg-6b-37
libjpeg-6b-37
libjpeg-devel-6b-37
libjpeg-devel-6b-37

Could someone recommend a way forward to get PHP to play with Jpeg GD?

Found the answer in the end. Even though the .so files are in /usr/lib/ and /usr/lib64, the build has to be as follows:
'--with-jpeg-dir=/usr'
