imagecreatefrom jpeg not working

hopefully this is an easy one to solve and I'm just missing something
little...

basically, I had a nice little website running with php, apache,
etc... that uses imagecreatefrom jpeg to create thumbnails of larger
pictures.

recently, I upgraded my system from suse 8.2 to suse 9.0, so I assume
my php/apache rpms were upgraded in the process...

Unfortunately, now, imagecreatefrom jpeg no longer works on pictures
taken with 1 of my 2 cameras - All of the ones with a Sony p30 work
just fine, whereas if I run the function on pictures taken with a
cannon powershot s400, execution of the PHP script stops. Nothing in
the logs, nothing output to the screen, etc...

Here is a snippet of code that I use:
$size = getimagesize($p icturePath);

$width = $size[0] * $x / 100;
$height = $size[1] * $y / 100;
$im = @imagecreatefro mjpeg($pictureP ath);
$newim = imagecreatetrue color($width,$h eight);
ImageCopyResize d($newim,$im,0, 0,0,0,$width,$h eight,ImageSX($ im),ImageSY($im ));

If I put an echo right before and right after the
$im=@imagecreat efromjpeg line, the first echo prints out, the second
does not - so php stops parsing, executing the document.

Again, this worked in the past, and I can't figure out why it wouldn't
now. Here is some info from my setup:

Any help would be amazing - I've been banging my head on this for

One thought: Are the two files you're trying the same size? If one is
significantly larger, it could either a) be larger than POST_MAX_FILE_S IZE
or whatever it is in php.ini or b) it could be large enough that it will
cause the script to timeout.

Its a thought, but I'm pretty sure it isn't correct for 2 reasons:

1) The script always worked relatively quickly in the past - it takes
about 10-15 seconds to process 30 pictures... and the script is dying
in about .5 seconds now...

2) I'm not posting pictures - the php page is actually iterating over
files in a directory that I choose, so it wouldn't hit the
post_max_file_s ize.

thanks though.

Hmm... have you tried writing a separate script that just tries to open one
of the "evil" jpeg files, and on that one, don't shove an @ in front of
imagecreatefrom jpeg() (so you can see what the error message is)?

Thank you - a brilliant idea... when I did that and and printed out
the return value from imagecreatefrom jpeg(), I got the following:

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted at
(null):0 (tried to allocate 9088 bytes) in...

So I went to my php.ini file and upped the max memory and now
everything works great. That also explains why my old camera (1.3
megapixels) worked and my new one (4 megapixels) didn't.

thanks again,
mike.
