The thing that did the trick for me in the end was:

yum install gd gd-devel php-gd

and then restart apache:

 service httpd restart

  • You need to find a repo that offers a GD library that matches your current php version. I had great success using Remi for a Coli replica for this purpose. In fact, I used it yesterday to upgrade my php installation to the latest version 5.4.0RC6 in my CentOS6 window.
  • Once you set up the repo just execute sudo yum install php-gd
  • Of course, the usual things apply: make sure you restart apache after installation, etc.

With CentOS 6.5+ and PHP 5.5:

 yum install php55u-gd service httpd restart

If you receive an error message: cannot map zero-fill pages: Cannot allocate memory in Unknown on line 0 , this may be due to the fact that you do not have a swap file. I suggest you take a look at the tutorial mentioned in this answer: https://stackoverflow.com>
